Continuous swimming...

Hey, I started swimming in June this year. Took me about a month to learn it, I'm still in learning phase though. I can breathe while swimming (freestyle), but after about 2-3 minutes I get out of breathe...I could only go from one side of the pool to the other and back to where I started...after that I must wait for like 5 minutes until I can swim again. What am I doing wrong?

If you want to post a video - I know people on here are good about providing feedback. Good luck!!!
