Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

How did you feel when you started your third trimester?

I feel like poo lately. I am at the point where i just want Sept to be here. I am so sick of being pregnant. My skin had gotten bad again, my hair is all of a sudden flat...i Can't concentrate on work - all I want to do is go home...nothing fits me...and I am super sensitive again

I was doing so well then all of a sudden

did anyone else feel this way around this time?

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

Yes. I am 29 weeks. Except for morning sickness through week 10 I have felt great. The past two weeks I have felt a noticeable change in my body - I am bigger, I have less energy and I am getting nauseous again in the mornings I hope it passes and I go back to feeling good again.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

So funny that you posted this because I hit the 3rd trimester tomorrow and all of a sudden I dont feel that great. I mean I still feel fine all things considered and I am still not hoping for the baby to born just yet but my energy level has decreased alot and I just feel worn out so easily.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

32 weeks and I am back to not sleeping. I get VERY uncomfortable at night but I seem to have some energy during the day. I thought I was getting the sleeping thing under control but last night was a horrible night with very unhappy baby dreams

The third Tri hits you like a ton of bricks...it's like -- You're Fine, You're Fine, You're Fine and then BAM - you are exhausted again and it sucks!!!

Rest up now because it only gets worse! Sorry!

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

Im fine as long as I get tons of sleep! I thankfully dont have to work outside the home...The kids are going to be home now so at least I dont have to get up early any more.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I hit 29 weeks on Saturday and I have to say, overall, I still feel pretty good. I will admit that I feel more tired lately. And there are moments when I eat too fast and feel like I am going to throw up because all the food had nowhere to go with the lack of space.

I'm trying to stay as positive as I can be and enjoy these last 2 and a half months as much as I can.

Plus, I just got taken off pelvic rest (was on it for about 8 weeks), so I am trying to get back into the swing of things with my DH.... so much bigger than I was so it's been interesting!!!


Hang in there!

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I was feeling pretty good until about 34 weeks and then it gets REALLY bad...the baby just puts on all this weight suddenly and it literally feels like you are carrying around a bowling ball....sorry, but it actually gets worse as time goes on.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

i am 30 weeks and i am tired and just want to relax all the time.. i feel as tired as i was in the beginning..

10 weeks to go and to go through it the whole summer.. oh boy oh boy

i have been feeling a little nasuas latley and the indigestion is unbearable most of the time

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I felt like crap as soon as I hit the 3rd trimester! I was suddenly tired 10 minutes after waking up again. I couldn't sleep more than 2 hours. I would literally pass out on Sundays.

I got moody again and found myself just miserable.

Hang in there, you're almost done...annoying advice...but it's true.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I felt like total crap even before I hit the 3rd trimester and then when I hit the 3rd trimester everything went completely downhill. Barely getting any sleep during the night, peeing constantly, swollen hands and feet. My feet are BEYOND swollen. I've been extremely uncomfortable and irritable. Can't wait until this is all over. Only a few more days hopefully.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I am a week behind you and I'm still feeling pretty good. My Dr. said once you hit 28 weeks it can get rough, but not for everyone. I hope you feel better!

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I totally felt this way, and it comes and goes for me during this last trimester.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I didn't hit me until like 32 weeks with both pg's. More so with my 2nd since I have a 1 year who's so active to chase after.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I am 30 weeks- and I still feel the same. The only thing thats bothering me is my feet. They hurt alot and are soooooooooo swollen!

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

Once I hit the 26-27 mark, it went downhill for me.

It only gets worse!

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I am 28 weeks and slowing down suddenly. I don't sleep well at all...I wake about 6 times a night to either pee...walk off a leg cramp, or roll over because of a braxton hicks.
I still love that I don't have to share him yet, so I can stick it out a while longer.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

I too was feeling fine until maybe 33-34 weeks, then I started getting cranky, sensitive, tired and swollen and work went out the window.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

It wasn't immediate but as the third tri goes on I feel worse. Sorry to say it'll proly get worse! Just hang in there and take it easy. At least you are not alone! Every preggo feels it.

Re: Question for those already in your 3rd trimester

Luckily - I am 33 weeks and still feeling pretty much the same. Little lazy by the end of the day and more aches and pains but all normal stuff - not too bad at all. Glad to say - much different than my last pregnancy!!
