3rd Trimester

36 weeks and feeling yuck

So Im just over 36 weeks and in the last few days everything just feels 'different'... I went from feeling great to very uncomfortable. I feel like my belly is super heavy and even switching positions in a chair or in bed is really difficult. Even LOs movements suddenly became really big and are hurting me. Could I be going through the lightening stage allready? ... Or is this just how it is in the last month? It just seemed to happen over night thats why I ask. Anyone else go through a sudden change like this? Thanks, and sorry for the naive question!

  • I've been the same way for the past few days but I have a little longer than you to go. I think it's just the last month and all the added weight.
  • The same thing happened to me once I hit 36 weeks! I have no clue why, but now I know why all the women who are ahead of me said they couldn't wait for LO to come! :)

  • I could've written this post word for word! I've been experiencing the same things in the last few days ... all of sudden finding it very difficult to flip over in bed, and definitely some of babys movements starting to hurt!

    Looks like we're just coming in on the home stretch! Wink

    ditto!

  • Yup, me too... I feel like a baby hippo trying to roll over in bed, can't bend over my belly to put my shoes on and nothing but PJs are comfortable to wear. Come on baby boy, let's get the show on the road!
  • Me too! Same exact things...plus the baby has been using my bladder and cervix as pillows, which is oh so fun.

  • I am with you...I totally feel like crap the past couple of days...I am super uncomfortable, have no energy to do anything and totally want this baby out!! I just took off my wedding rings which I was trying to not have to do, but don't want to have to cut them off either..

    Nevermind the fact that I am so not sleeping at night...I know it is getting me ready for when he comes...but man...I miss sleep.

  • I cant tell you all how nice it was to read that others are with me on this, I honestly thought something was wrong all of a sudden! On the other hand, Im sorry you all are feeling as crappy as I do. I guess we all just need to hang in there a few more weeks... most of the replies were within days of my due date! So strange that it just happened like that! ugh!
