3rd Trimester
27 weeks and absolutely miserable.
I'm 28 weeks with baby # 2. Having a girl....My husband and I already have a son..Noah who is 2. My pregnancy with Noah was amazing, I felt great almost the whole time...I had very few discomforts...and no morning sickness. But this pregnancy has been horrible from the very start. I feel so bad saying that I haven't really enjoyed much of my pregnancy at all. I still get sick...not as much as I did in the first or second trimester though. But I am pretty small 5'1 and 98 pre preg. I am now 116 and I just ache with every step I take. I feel pressure "downstairs" Which i've already talked to my ob a bout and all is well. But my hips make cracking sounds with every step I take...literally. I honestly am so overwhelmed I just don't even see how I'm gonna be able to do this much longer....it's so hard feeling like this and chasing after a 2 year old all day. I haven't told my doctor that I'm THIS uncomfortable, I don't know if I even should. I've had no cramping or bleeding....just non stop aches and discomfort when I walk or move certain ways. And The baby kicks all day long...very very hard. I actually had a bruise underneath my stomach....It was confirmed by my ob that it was a bruise...and I'm just shocked. I didn't even know that was possible. Am I the only one who is just absolutely miserable??? I feel awful...and hate admitting that I am...

Re: 27 weeks and absolutely miserable.
Im right there with you. I am 26 weeks and 5 day and i feel extreamly uncomfortable as well. My right rib is killing me and there isnt any position that makes it feel all better, my lower back cracks when i wake up in the morning and i have to limp all the way to the bathroom while trying to wake up for the day! I've been starting to feel like im in my 1st trimester again. I'm starting to feel nauseous, and i know food will fix it, but im so unmotivated to cook a full meal. sometimes , while making food or even thinking about makes me want to throw up! Im so tired all the time and i have all my classes set for December because my hospital couldnt get me in any earlier so im forced to do them a month before my due date.
I havent talked to my doctor about any of this either, and i kind of figure, why bother. All she can tell me is either deal with it or take Tylenol which never helped before.
Stay strong and hopefully, we will get through it. This is my first and im hoping my next will be more comfortable.

I am literally a brand new woman being prego with my third baby. My first two were awful. Around 22 weeks i started feeling awful again and it hurt to walk.
I was introduced to Integrated Manual physical therapy. i swear it was like witchcraft. I can walk,sleep and feel fine.
all i had to do was lay there and they placed their hands in random places and they move your muscles just by touching you. reversing things? I dont know but it worked.
They need to be trained,well trained. So call your local physical therapist office and ask about it. Then get a referral from your OB Dr.
good luck!
I've been pretty miserable the whole time. I know that this pregnancy could be so much more miserable but it's been so much harder than I expected.
My Mom made me feel horrible because she kept telling me how wonderful 2nd tri was going to be but I never had those great feelings. Between the bad nausea that went halfway into 2nd tri to the RLP that sent me to the hospital.
Bleh I feel ridiculously bad at being pregnant.
Some people love being pregnant and some don't. I miss my body and being able to do things for myself. I miss being able to walk up the stairs without being out of breath, which is weird for me since I was running about 20 miles a week before pregnancy. My hips hurt and, though selfish, I really miss wine! lol
I am thankful that I am able to get pregnant and carry a baby to term, because so many women cannot. I am also amazed at what the human body can do, because the end result of all this hell is the most amazing thing you will ever experience. However, it doesn't change the fact that I still hate being pregnant!
