The Great Big Tri 3 Moaning Thread!

[Froslass]

Hi Ladies,

I thought that since Tri 3 seems to bring quite a few issues/challenges/annoyances we could start a thread for all the Tri 3ers to share their ailments

Sometimes I feel like all I do now I'm in tri three is moan! So figured we could have all our moans in one place and have a good wee laugh about it, as well as it being good for mummies to see if others are going through the same as them

Here are some of the joys I'm experiencing!

- Fed up with being swollen everywhere...as if I don't already look fat enough
- Heartburn
- Fed up being told different things by different midwives! one midwife tells me baby feels small, another says baby feels big...lol
- I need a small crane to help me turn in bed at night...

Feel free to moan away ladies, and any tips or hints about how to feel more comfortable in general are much appreciated!

Heartburn & not being able to get comfortable........ever. If I could spend the next 4 weeks in a hot bath I so would!!

Getting a stitch in my side and shin splints and tight calves when Ive only been walking for 5 mins! Not good when commuting to work!
How the hell does Paula Radcliffe run a a marathon when 6 months pg ??!!

Not being able to sleep on my stomach! Oh how I wish I could do that every night!

 

[Sarah13]

Good idea, let's get our moans out!
Nightly leg cramps and hip pains never get them in the day though, strange!
Feeling nauseous randomly, welcome back to tri 1 (
Can't wait to get a whole nights sleep without getting up to wee 6 times or screaming with bloody cramp in my leg, recon I haven't had a nights sleep since very early in tri 1.........
Def wish I could sleep on my stomach!
Not liking the needle rising on my bathroom scales either!
Lack of a sex life, although that's what caused this in the first place lol!
