3rd trimester symptoms...

[Elleyoung777]

Hey,

I'm 33 weeks pregnant now and really starting to feel it. Anyone else at the same stage and feeling super pregnant? I feel so heavy and tired constantly.

Also developed really bad skin which I've never had before.

The strangest new thing is this feeling in the side of my bump... Almost like carpet burn/pinching. It's not all the time, mainly when I lay on it. Could this just be muscles stretching?

Hope you're all well and having lovely weekend

Yes yes yes!
I'm 31 weeks and just beginning to feel a bit barrel-like. Feeling quite awkward and definitely more tired.
Funnily enough my skin has gone on my chin - LOTS of spots!

[Elleyoung777]

That's where mine is too Francesca. Wonder of it's hormonal, I wondered if it was my diet.
Kaz have you got Iron tablets to take? I started mine last week.
I could literally sleep all day I think. I've found preparations for Xmas so hard this year!

Had 2 girls, prob about ages 8, laughing and pointing at me in sainsburys earlier. One said to the other 'look how fat she is!' And then they where poking their stomachs out!

I had bloids taken last week for iron level seeing mw tomorrow in a weird aay im realli hoping i need iron tablets as i know theyll perk md up but if not i dunno how im gonna keep going hips are agony feel like a hog roast turning every so often in bed at nites xx

 

[Elleyoung777]

Maybe try something else to give you a pick me up... Floradix has always been good for me. My iron is pretty low that's the only reason I'm taking the iron tabs. They've been giving me horrible side effects.

Haha yeah I know that feeling... I think I wake up everytime I need to roll over and then I need to get up for a wee!

 

[kaz1983]

Dont mention wee-ing if i get up a certain way well u know leakzge xx

 

[Elleyoung777]

Oh no! Touch wood I haven't experienced that yet. Feels like it's going to happen tho!

 

[Pumpkin9]

Yes totally feel like a barge right now, feel so awkward and bending down is really uncomfortable. I've also got restless legs at night and feel congested and abit woozy at times.

I feel much better when I'm at home and I can drink water more often, work is a killer right now

 

[Elleyoung777]

I'm almost craving water at the moment. Can't drink enough.

Anyone still able to touch their toes!?

 

[Sweetmammat]

Yep I'm 38+1 and pooped! I feel massive and am struggling running around after my hyper 3 year old!

Also had a horrid cough that's kept me up every night for the past 3 weeks grrr

 

[Elleyoung777]

Ah that's rubbish Sweetmammat, hope your cough clears for the big day!

Are you saying that the energy levels just carry on decreasing!?
