Last trimester

I have enjoyed my first pregnancy, it’s all been quite plain sailing , but I’m now at 34 weeks and I’m struggling to walk, move , constantly out of breath! I am having growth scans weekly as he is a big boy (measuring on the 97 centile) but I am finding myself getting so frustrated that I can’t do anything making me feel resentful of him and very emotional crying every day - is this normal or am I just being dramatic?

Third trimester is where most women will be feeling pretty tired and uncomfortable now regardless of how they have felt previously. Personally I think it’s natures way of us getting prepared mentally so we’re less anxious about childbirth and just keen to get them out. My advice, just listen to your body, rest, eat and drink well and don’t be too hard on yourself.

So normal I'm 35 weeks and feel exactly the same! Our LO is also measuring on 97 centile!

Things start to get uncomfortable from now generally, no matter the centile. Last baby was on the 20th centile until birth and this one is currently on the 7th (clearly I have small babies lol) and life just becomes a bit more effort for a while 😂 it’s all normal x

I’m almost 33 weeks and honestly I could have wrote this myself. you’re definitely not being dramatic, it’s definitely not an easy trimester xx

This has made me feel so much better! Thanks all 💜 will all be worth it! But hard to see it at this moment xxx

Oh gosh that's me. I start to have a very very bad sciatica pain now and I litterly can't stand up feom bed and my oldest 10months is so demanding and I get frusttrating because I can't stand up. Gosh so hard. And my stupid partner sir down on chair all day neither doing washing up. Mf

I’m 34 weeks too. Having growth scans my baby is also on 98th percentile and just been diagnosed with GD. I am massive and honestly I’m so frustrated I can’t do the things I’d like to in preparing for his arrival. Think the backache is the worst, can’t wait to get my body back, very grateful to be in my situation but want my body back. My toddler makes things so much tougher too. Not her fault but being pregnant with a toddler is HARD. At least we’re all in the same boat!x
