Recently I just started my 3rd trimester and now I'm starting to feel more changes of my body. Was there any signs you experience during your third semester?
I feel like going from my second trimester to third trimester is like your birthday... there was no drastic sudden changes, but rather constant gradual changes since the beginning. As third trimester goes on, there will be more and more changes in your body.
If you want to be more active, I suggest to look through our other established threads. We have a symptoms thread where we all talk about what's going on with our bodies right now. There is also a board just for third trimester is you're interested in checking over there.

Me too!! I grunt like an old lady stuck in her giant recliner!! (Basically this is my grandma) my husband likes to watch me struggle for a second before asking if I need help lol
Right after I hit what is technically the third trimester, someone said "eh, the third tri doesn't really start until 30-32 weeks" and I wanted to smack her, because I already felt like shit. And then I hit 32 weeks and I felt like she was some kind of witch who had put a hex on me, because it did just kick to this whole other level for me.
So, basically, my understanding of the third tri is that is one long 3 month period that just gradually gets more and more awful until you're ready to go through ANYTHING to just get this fucking thing out of you.

@kswiger06 Why are you so sweet? There should be more people like you.
Seeing as how I'm personally only 1.5 weeks into third tri, I can't speak with any sort of definiteness about signs I'm in third tri. However, the actual date where I changed from second to third tri came and went with little fanfare and no additional signs.
OP, this is an established community with several existing threads where we discuss symptoms and just chat. I'd strongly recommend looking there for a serious look at what symptoms we're all dealing with.

@poetryandoceans You summed up everything perfectly. I remember thinking I was dying at weeks 28/29, and then weeks 30/31 hit and now everything from then seemed so much easier comparatively.

I'm 29 weeks today, and I'd heard the third trimester can be awful. But I am still feeling great, so I thought maybe that was crap. Now I realize it's naive to think that my current lack of discomfort will last... I mean, what was I expecting, to hit 28 weeks and immediately feel like shit? (Yes, maybe I was.) I guess I'll start mentally preparing for the gradual decline in my physical comfort and emotional well-being for the next couple of months.
I hit 31 weeks over the weekend and my lower back definitely hurts more, but other than that nothing big has changed. It is gradually getting harder and harder to get up or bend over...but that's been a gradual thing for a while now.
3rd tri sucks, but I'll still take it over 1st any day. At least now people are nicer to me. This is me going up and down stairs though. Because dog gif
Yeah, from week 29 to week 30 I was basically all "I feel amazGOD WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS." I did a full-length musical during my second tri, and it was mostly the easiest thing. Then yesterday I had a one-off concert (with a total of three rehearsals over four weeks and songs I already knew) and I sort of wanted to cry the entire time.

My hair growth (eyebrows, legs, etc) has been slow this whole time. Which is good but also bad, because with my last two, I shed so much hair that the clumps scared me
even my maternity shirts are getting short and I have 8 more weeks.
Girl me too but I just walk around with the lower half of my belly hanging out. No fucks given. It's too late in the game to buy more freaking maternity wear.
I'm thankful I bought a lot of dresses/tunics, let me just say that. Bottom of the belly hanging out in front of a 9th grade class? Pretty sure my admin would have things to say about that.

@Xstatic3333 My house has stairs and I'm dying. I think sometime in the next few weeks I might permanently relocate to the couch downstairs.
