3rd Trimester.

What's the third trimester like?
Syntoms? Pains?
What should I start planning?

Exhausting; feet swells up, nausea, acid reflux, difficult in sleeping due to pain, and braxton hicks contractions.  Symptoms I've been feeling and I am 35 weeks.

Well I haven't had any problems this whole pregnancy. Seriously all I've had is a little back pain but not much. And sore feet that's from standing on then for 30 at work. But that's it aside from the usual mood swings. I just heard the 3rd trimester *****. I'm kinda freaking out about having contractions. Any suggestions. I heard like, yoga or stretching helps with contractions.

Well I've been the opposite with trimesters.. My 2nd trimester I was always tired! Literally all the time, so far my 3rd trimester has been great I have more energy than I have had and apart from acid reflux and a sore back I'm feeling fine.. I'm only 32+4 though so I'm hoping that it stays this way :)

Everyone is different when it comes to symptoms etc. For me though, I have just been soo exhausted! Second trimester i had soo much energy but now its like I barely have any. First trimester i was a bit tired, but third its way more lol. Also, ive been having more of my belly button hurting (which i heard is just the uterus expanding to make room for baby). Those are really the big two i have went through. My acid reflex came back this week (im 33 weeks now). Hope this kinda helps :) if not, this comment will bump this up lol :p
