Third trimester

I'm 27 weeks today. :)
What should I expect out of my third trimester? What's labor like? Contractions? Anything is helpful.

I'm 30 Weeks & 3 Days , At The Top She Basically Covered It All ! I'm Experiencing Hard Times With Sleeping (Turning Over At Night, Due To My Big Belly!) , I Have Increased Hunger, Increased Baby Weight Gain . . . Ugh! , Increased Movements, A Bit Of Constipation At Times, No Nausea, But Tiredness From Working, So Many Braxton Hicks Contractions!!! Omg! & They Are Starting To Get Bad Now That My Baby Is Larger! Just Prepare . Ohh, & From A Previous Birth Contractions Are Nothing To Play With!

What to expect in third trimester, no sleep, can't get comfortable, hip pain, constapation, no energy, Hungry, my morning sickness came back with a vengeance! I can not wait for labor, even though it definitely hurts. It means a end to all this madness lol.. good luck hope your pregnancy is going better than mine..

I just started my 3rd tri last Wednesday and I have terrible heartburn and can't not sleep. My baby moves non-stop now and at times I believe I feel Braxton hicks contractions but I'm not sure because I'm a first time mom. After I eat I get the feeling that I am going to throw up but don't. I'm just ready to be done and have my baby girl already. Good luck to you!

Third trimester for me has consisted of a lot of heartburn and insomnia! But I feel my baby move around all day I'm 34 weeks now. First time mom so I'm not really sure what to expert from labor either.

Contractions feel like terrible period cramps for the most part...baby should start being a lot more active as it will start putting on a bunch of weight. Some women have their water break, feels like you are peeing and cant control it, others water never breaks. Some women lose a mucas plug amnd have a bloody show, others dont. Each pregnancy is special and unique in its own way. It may get increasingly harder to sleep...and you may get a lot hungrier because baby is growing so much...you may start to get strech marks, or you may not...just try to enjoy this special time.
