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?

im in my 3rd trimester now i just started it last week but i feel fine i actually feel my baby more and more and im not that tired yet..im thinking things will get rather worse around the 34th week...right now my acid reflux is the part that is killing me

Hey,
Im 30weeks this week and I really havent been to tried, thank god....I have also notice a few days were Hunter wasnt moving as much/ as stong. They are just running out of ROOM.

[kirby26]

Yes, this is true too! Hopefully thats just what it is.. I worry about everything!!

[mamaofonetrying42]

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

[kirby26]

what is the kick count??

[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]

ok great! thanks:-)

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

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]

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?

[blueeyedtabbycat]

thanks ladies! 2 More weeks and I will be there too!!!

[mamaofonetrying42]

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?

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

[kirby26]

Ok, good!
I guess i dont realize how big he probably is getting.. :-)

brown eyed gurl..

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!

[Mommy3Girls]

Im getting closer, but not quite there. I will be 23 weeks tomorrow. I am getting excited though. I cant wait until we get to meet our precious little girl!

[Riot_Queen]

[kirby26]

kelly87

are you having a boy or girl?

[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.

[chitten]

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???

[sameerab]

it may be different for different countries here in the US its 28 weeks 28-40 weeks

[Kelly87]

I am having a boy. My boyfriends mom told me that usually with girls you get sick again but I dunno... its for sure a boy though. lol
