It does not stop. It may slow down a little so that oxygen can be adequately loaded into the red blood cells.
Oxygen enters the blood in the alveoli of the lungs
The exchange of gases between blood and air occurs in the alveoli of the lungs. Oxygen from the air diffuses into the bloodstream, while carbon dioxide from the blood diffuses into the air in the alveoli to be exhaled.

Alveoli which are in your lungs
In the lungs, carbon dioxide is concentrated more in the blood. The alveoli keeps the carbon dioxide at a lower level than in the blood.
No, blood is not transported through the alveoli. The alveoli are tiny air sacs in the lungs where gas exchange occurs between the lungs and the blood vessels. Oxygen is taken in from the air and carbon dioxide is removed from the blood in the alveoli.
Oxygen (O2) is exchanged for carbon dioxide (CO2) in the lungs. In the alveoli, tiny air sacs in the lungs, oxygen from the air is transferred into the bloodstream while carbon dioxide from the blood is released into the air to be exhaled.
In the lungs. The blood is pumped from the right side of the heart to the lungs. Air moves into the trachea, the bronchi and finally to the alveoli. From the alveoli oxygen diffuses into the microcapilaries (small blood vessels) of the lungs.
alveoli are tiny branches of the lungs where blood travels to be oxygenated so it is useful to the rest of the body.
