3rd trimester worst yet???

Lynball

This has been the single worst part of this pregnancy!!!  I'm constantly tired all day unless it's time for bed, then I want to pack everything in sight (we're moving, btw).  I don't want to eat anything unless it's breakfast time... thinking of food makes me sick, eating it is worse.  But chocolate....  I want chocolate all the time.  What the crap! 

Headaches have been constant, back pain as well....  swelling is getting a tad out of hand...  getting sick left and right, both throwing up and otherwise (TMI sorrry!)  Broken out with pimples everywhere (gonna assume that's the heat and sweat helping that one). Confused alllllll the time, just all around out of it!!!   AHHH!!!!

I'm sorry I laughed a little as I read this, only because I feel the exact same way!  I don't remember feeling like this with DS, I just want LO to be here and this pregnancy to be over, I know its not bad in the grand scheme of things but ughhhh!

I just sent DH to the grocery store with a list and he came home with some of the most random items that I put on the list and I have no idea what i was thinking when i did that...lol

I am soooooooo exhausted.  Like, 1st tri doesn't have anything on how tired or how much I've been sleeping. I'm ashamed to admit how much I've slept in the last three days!!!!!  And I've still got at least 9 weeks to go...oh Jeez!!

I am definitely feeling more tired and keep overdoing it.  I wore heels to work on Friday (only 1 inch heels!) but could hardly walk to my car at the end of the day.  I had to stop, drink an entire bottle of water, and then give myself a pep talk to make the 2 minute walk, lol!  

the heat is not helping things.  As long as I am sitting in a nice air conditioned space I'm good, but as soon as I start moving I sweat like a hog.

Ugh maybe I'm in for it. I still feel like 1st tri was way worse than this!

It's definitely the worst so far but it isn't that terrible, yet. My main complaint is the lack of sleep. My heartburn always kicks in around 10pm, I toss and turn because my hips and back hurt, I get up to pee 3+ times a night and the INSOMNIA, ugggh!!

Also the combination of me getting bigger and DS getting heavier, it's getting a lot harder to lift him. Especially getting him in & out of the car.

I had a rough 1st tri so I gotta disagree here. I'm exhausted, but nowhere near as tired as I was in the beginning. I don't have an appetite and feel sick every now and then, but I CAN eat - couldn't even stand the smell of ANYTHING in the 1st. My skin and hair were gross in the 1st tri from lack of sleep - all clear now.

I'm achy and sore all over (especially my hips and back) and that's about the only thing that feels worse for me.

I am so tired too and my back is feeling the belly weight.  My balance is funny, our fridge is a small one I have to squat down to look inside and I often find myself falling backwards and sliding across the kitchen floor on my butt while I stare longingly at the food moving farther away.

Because I didn't have a dr until I was 11w and we didn't know that I was so dangerously anemic I was so incredibly tired before I started taking the extra iron. Now though, I feel the same as I did before the supplements...and I ensure I take it so that there isn't any confusion in my tiredness.

My hips hurt so bad from sleeping on my sides constantly and even after a cold shower before bed I still wake up soaked in sweat...and that's sleeping with a fan blowing directly on me and only using a sheet.

I do enjoy being pregnant, and I can't complain about first or second tri at all, but this one is quickly kicking my butt. I'm so tired, and I have terrible mood swings...and I can hear myself thinking "Hey, don't act like that" but I just do it anyway. I know when I'm being irrational and immature and throwing a fit, but somewhow my brain can't intervene...it just gives up.

I'm with you all the way!  I was lucky to not have any morning sickness this whole time, so other than being very sleepy/tired in my 1st tri, it was pretty easy.  The 2nd tri was beyond awesome...no symptoms and still was "big" yet.  This trimester SUCKS!  Mainly for me because of things you mentioned above, but my two worst things are:  HEARTBURN LIKE A MOTHER!  I swear I could breathe fire at times and lack of sleep because I'm so uncomfortable at night, I'm getting no sleep.  I'm aching, sick of sleeping on my side (former stomach sleeper here) and have to pee all the time.  BOO!

I had a very happy 1st and 2nd trimester. It would be all too easy if the 3rd felt easy as well, right? I wouldn't say I'm miserable but I'm definitely uncomfortable in a variety of ways and ready to meet my little guy.

So far the 1st has been the worst for me- but I am not very far into the 3rd trimester yet. I am starting to get uncomfortable but my energy has actually been a little more then usual. I give it a few weeks before I become exhausted again. Sorry you are having such a tough time. I know I am more then ready to meet my baby boy- just need to get through 6 more weeks and then he can come any time!

It's like you are in my head! I was sick for the first 4 months and it has come back again, though thankfully not as bad, but it does hit me out of nowhere like it did then. Tired is an understatement. As someone else posted, my indegestion is wreaking havoc on me and it always hits when I'm asleep. The other night I moved to three different spots in the house trying to get to where I could sleep without the indegestion keeping me awake... and that was after chewing a handful of Tums! The headaches haven't made their full reappearance, but I did have one the other day that I knew was due to this fun hormonal roller coaster going on. And seriously, leaking boobs in the middle of the night?! Not attractive at all!

 I broke down crying, as usual, the other night and when poor DH asked me what in the world was wrong this time, all I could say was this is supposed to be something special and that I'm helping create this miracle from God and should be honored but God's miracle is making me miserable!
