a couple of questions ......

[beanie]

Just wanted to pick your brains.

1. When does the third trimester start, 27 weeks or 28 weeks?

2. Is anyone else experiencing painful kicks from their little one. Sometimes (mainly at night) my bean kicks me really hard on my left side and it bloody hurts!! I don't want to sound like I am complaining as I ove feeling baby move, but I just didn't think it would be this painful at 26 weeks, thought I'd have some time before it started bruising me.

Thank you xxxxx

I think most people go with 27 weeks as the start of the third tri.

No such much painful as uncomfortable. When she kicks when I am sat down, sometimes it feels like she's kicked me right in the wee tube and that's uncomfy!
