34 weeks I have back, rib, and hip pain. I have to constantly move whether I'm sitting or lying down because I feel uncomfortable. I also feel like I'm starting to walk funny because my belly has grown so much. My baby moves a lot and and its the best feeling seeing how she moves in my belly from one side to the other:)

im 37 weeks&4 days.. ever since i hit my third trimester i noticed it was harder to sleep, very difficult to get comfy then once i do get comfy il have to pee, def alot more bathroom breaks! i stay up all night&sleep during the day most days, some days i dont get sleep at all cause i have things to do. Babys kicks get stronger&are painful when he/she gives good kicks to my ribs. More discharge then usual. Back aches. Hot feet. Crazy mood swings.. when i get mad, i get really mad! usually for absoultley no reason. uhhhh.... there have been a few times this trimester i just cried for hours cause i felt that i cant support a baby, i wont be a good mom, that im not ready! FTM problem lol but as everyday goes by i am more and more excited to meet my little prince or princess.. not much longer of a wait for me! good luck in your third trimester :) ♡♥

Im 39weeks 3 days and i experienced the worst rib pain ever, i had to take tylenol all the time. I go to the bathroom constantly and at night if i just have one more sip of water next to my bed, i stay up for another half hour or so because i have to go to the bathroom. I dont sleep but until i do i do not want to wake up in the morning whatsoever!  And it takes me a good hour to fully wake up and be aware. My whole third trimester i was super hormonal i was happy one second then sad the next! And sex is literally only doggy style i cant remember the last time we did it differently besides me on top a couple times n that was a challenge lol. And stretch marks got really worse too my last couple months. But babygirl should be here in the next 4 days ! So itll all be worth it :)

With my last 2 pregnancies my morning sickness continued through my 3rd trimester but my favorite part was the big belly n all the people wishing me a safe healthy baby since I was getting so big.  I also enjoyed that with each movement I could tell what part of the baby it was,  whether it be an elbo sticking out or the little feet kicking away!  It is also when the aches of pregnancy started getting to me n every day activity became a task lol. For me,  sex in 3rd trimester was amazing for some reason.  Nesting was a big thing too, I think I reorganized n refolded everything in baby's drawer a hundred times so it would be perfect!  Lastly I think the 3rd trimester made me more needy. I wanted to be around my bf or family 24/7 and my pregnancy hormones made me go from crying at every little thing I saw on tv to being more loving n snuggly at all times.  This was my experience with the third trimester :) good luck
