third trimester

[kirby26]

How many of you are starting your third trimester soon?? I will be starting mine on monday (7months). I am starting to get sooooo tired again, like was in the first trimester.. what is everyone is experiencing??

also, is it ok for the movement of the baby to not be as strong for a few days?

I'll be 28 weeks on friday and am extremely tired anll the time. I am not achy all over and my legs, feet, and hands are now more swollen then ever. Also my daughter isnt moving as much anymore. I ended up in l&d today because I didnt feel her move all day today and it scared me. But of corse as soon as I got ther, 20 minutes later she was all over the monitor... LOL so I feel your third trimester pains!

Hi all - glad were all well!
Im 29weeks in a few days so Im in the Third trimester too!!! Im so excited I cant wait to hold my little man.. just wish we could find a name for him :-) We like Max and Harrison so I suppose weve at least got potentials lol...
Ive been super uncomfortable, more hungry and getting occasional sharp cramps but Im sure this is all normal! I finish work in 4 and a bit weeks so I cant wait. Being pregnant in a super high stress environment job is really startin to get old ... quickly! Plus nothin fits me lol...

I had my scan at 25 weeks 4 days and was informed at the hospital that you enter 3rd trimester from when your baby becomes viable at 25 weeks???

[martikadragoon]

I've got 4 more weeks! yay... my little guy has been moving off and on all day. after being quiet for 3 full days. (mostly quiet.. I'd get about 10 or so movements in the evenings)

I can't believe this is going by so fast.

I know what you mean, I am sooooo tired lately! I felt like  had this burst of energy in the second trimester.. but that is GONE!

[Brown Eyed Gurl]

me me me me....I start mine Saturday I'm so excited cause it's coming to an end so that means I'm close to holding my babies.....so far I'm now officially in the very uncomfortable stage where I hurt all the time and exhausted all the time I am to the stage of no sleep and all I want to do is sleep....but guess that's the joy of twins

Yea, if you felt 10 then they say everything is Ok. His just running out of room, and prob. moved a different way, you konw?

[blueeyedtabbycat]

[kirby26]

I did the kick count.. Im pretty sure i felt movement 10 times..

It just doesnt feel as strong as hs been.. but that is ok right?

[sameerab]

[kirby26]

It starts in the 7th month..so 28 weeks

[blueeyedtabbycat]

what weeks does the 3rd trimester start at? this is my 3rd time around and I can never remember!, lol:)

[chitten]

Im in the 3rd trimester now (26 weeks 1 day) and had an emergency scan on friday due to unexplained bleeding. My little girl is doing fine and its so amazing to see how much shes grown in the past 6 weeks. Her head circumference is now 24.6cm!!!!!!!!

She moves 24/7 so im not at all worried about that.

Anyone else think its starting to drag now??? I just cant wait to meet her :)

[kirby26]

ok great! thanks:-)

I actually just ate lunch and drank a lemonade... so i will try it right now!

[mamaofonetrying42]

Well, after you eat lunch or drink some juice. you lay on your left side for an hour and you should feel the baby move(any movment) 10 times ( and once you hit 10 you can stop) and they say if you dont you should call your Ob. I have been doing this everyday, and there was one day that I had a hard time getting him to move and I  had to drink a big cup of apple juice......And there is was.....

[kirby26]

what is the kick count??

[mamaofonetrying42]

I was getting worried as well. Tell and do the Kick count .....
