3rd Trimester

It's finally here!!!!

It's after midnight here so I'm going to celebrate this now... today is my 35/35 and I'm super excited and freaked out at the same time!

I can't wait to meet my little boy and I'm thrilled that we're getting so close- this is one of those milestones that I felt like I would never get to, but by the same token, I'm absolutely freaking out because it hasn't really sunk in that I am going to have a BABY in just a couple weeks. You would think that after over 8 1/2 months I would be able to wrap my mind around this, but I just can't believe that this is going to be happening soon...

I think this sums it up really well:

    Why is 35/35 something to celebrate?

  • Mrs Rebecca....

    LOL. Sometimes you are so dry, girl!  Has anyone ever told you that?

    Yes. And I wasn't trying to be mean or snarky...I just don't know why 35/35 is a big deal?

    It's just another fun milestone!  Don't you celebrate a bit when you hit 2nd tri and then "V-Day" and then 3rd Tri?

    Hitting trimesters and v-day I understand. But I didn't know the significance of 35/35. The significance of trimesters is self explanatory- as is V-day. But I'm not sure what the milestone is related to 35/35...and I am dead serious. I just don't get it...it makes more sense to me to celebrate 37 weeks as a milestone because then you are technically full term.

  • Is it just because it's fun to say 35/35? Cause it kind of is...
  • Why is any milestone something to not celebrate?!

    LOL...but what's the milestone??? 

     

  • It's just a fun milestone.  It doesn't have any kind of significance as far as the baby or the pregnancy except that you are that much closer to having little one and it's a fun little marker to look forward to!

    LOL. Same thing.  I think it is just a Bump thing.

     

  • I always thought of it as a milestone bc its the point where your 35 weeks and have 35 days left.... I agree though I will be excited once I hit 37 too...

  • Just FYI.  Term is now considered to be anywhere from 38 to 42 weeks as they've found that lungs aren't always fully developed at 37 weeks.

  • i didnt even know what 35/35 was! now i do, congrats!
  • I had to ask what it was the other day too.. I'm excited to get there, but scared at the same time.  Why cant the second trimester have lasted just a bit longer?
  • I agree!  Nervous but very excited at the same time!

  • Congratulations on 35/35!  I for one celebrate practically everything, so I'm excited for you no matter what.  Who cares if it's not a milestone to someone else, if you're excited about it, enjoy the day!  :)

    Btw, I might be a total moron but what is V-Day?

    LOL... definitely not a stupid question! V-Day is Viability day (24 weeks) when the baby becomes theoretically viable outside of the womb. At that point, most doctors will do everything possible to save the baby, should he or she be born early.
