I get huge but for some reason am never uncomfortable. (And I say that as someone who carried until 42 weeks.) The third trimester has always been easy for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2381958 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 14:47:35 +0000 Somebunny 2381958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second- both times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2381955 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 14:46:30 +0000 Mrswonderwoman 2381955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say that each had their pros and cons, but for me 3rd is always the worst just because I feel big, awkward, slow, exhausted, sleepless, and in pain everywhere. First trimester has never been super awful, just a bit more tired than usual and weird food aversions. With my first son, 2nd trimester was definitely a breeze. This time with my second, I got bigger a bit faster so 2nd trimester was not quite as enjoyable, but still easier than 3rd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349932 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 21:06:28 +0000 pastemoo 2349932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for my son, first was best<br /> this one i'm the first and it sucks way more than last time. not looking forward... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349923 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 21:02:24 +0000 Miss Sarah 2349923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kind of enjoyed the end of second into the first two months of third the best. I felt so much less anxious about baby's health and things that could go wrong. I also had more energy. Now I'm in the final month...which feels like eternity, and the back pain is in full force, I can't sleep, and I'm really just anxious for baby girl to arrive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349917 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 21:00:06 +0000 LilSprinkles 2349917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To be honest, they were all equally the same. I had a pretty easy pregnancy. I didn't have to work the 2nd half of my pregnancy due to summer break and then taking a year off, so I guess I'll say my 3rd trimester since I wasn't working and got to relax and do whatever I wanted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349916 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:59:21 +0000 SweetCaroline 2349916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: same here. Second tri. However, my morning sickness extended into the second tri. Blech. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349915 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:58:49 +0000 californiadreams 2349915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349912 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:58:13 +0000 red_seattle 2349912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2nd trimester with both pregnancies (though I'm still in the 2nd tri at the moment-- just assuming 3rd tri will be harder.) No nausea, appetite is back, not tired, I'm not ginormous &amp; uncomfortable, BH contractions aren't too frequent. Plus, I'm not currently "high risk" (I was high risk in the 1st tri with both pregnancies, and high risk the 3rd tri with DS, so the 2nd tri has been good to me.) So, the 2nd tri wins by a landslide. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349905 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:56:18 +0000 alphagam84 2349905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second trimester by far! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349883 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:41:19 +0000 LindsayLou 2349883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second for sure. First tri I was nervous about losing the baby after a previous miscarriage, was exhausted, and had no appetite. Third tri I was ready to be done, had horrendous swelling in my feet and legs the last 3 weeks, and wasn't sleeping much. The only real issue in the second tri was hip pain. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349865 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 20:32:34 +0000 buttermilk 2349865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an easy pregnancy but I'll say 2nd bc I wasn't anxious about the viability like I was in the first, and not huge and uncomfy like the third! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349812 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:51:15 +0000 MrsSRS 2349812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Theoretically the second, but with my first pregnancy that was when baby kicked so hard my rib dislocated (owwww) and with my second that was when I broke my tailbone, so... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349793 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:40:18 +0000 travellingbee 2349793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: me too! Hate. It. I was throwing up with terrible nausea this pregnancy until 28 weeks and now the acid reflux is unbearable. And I'm anemic so I'm stupid tired. Ugh </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349788 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:36:12 +0000 wrkbrk 2349788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: The first. By 24 weeks I had acid reflux and crazy bad back pain so the second half of two and three have been less fun. I felt fine in the first trimester except for sporadic vomiting - ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349775 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:30:16 +0000 gingerbebe 2349775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have a good trimester. I had ridick morning sickness and exhaustion until 22-24 weeks. Then I had this 6 week period from weeks 24-30 where I had energy to do things and didn't have morning sickness. I was on total pelvic rest from 20-28 for a complete previa so really I had like 28-30 weeks to nest and decorate and make freezer meals. I got tired again at 30 weeks and waking 10x a night to pee didn't help. Nausea came back at 36 weeks? I stopped working at 38 weeks, water broke at 38w5d and DS was born via emergency C-section at 39 weeks. Ugh I hate pregnancy so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349752 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:17:41 +0000 travellingbee 2349752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Equal sucking in all trimesters. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349746 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 19:15:23 +0000 Foodnerd81 2349746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Second, but I would phrase more as it sucked the least. I did get the worst sciatic nerve pain in the second trimester though, but the worst of that was only a week or two, compared to months of nausea in the first and general late pregnant discomfort in the third. </p> <p>First pregnancy actually probably toss up between second and third trimesters- neither were awful. </p> <p>This time second but they all suck. Can you tell I'm donors? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349699 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 18:30:23 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2349699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, second trimester was the easiest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-trimester-was-the-easiest-for-you#post-2349698 Mon, 09 Nov 2015 18:29:32 +0000 Bao 2349698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first with each LO really sucked. I had nausea bad with my first, just a little with my second but general early pregnancy pains made it not so fun. The third trimester brought bad hip and back pain, swelling, and being anxious to meet LO. So the second trimester gets my vote for being the easiest! </p>
