Like you, I was ready for third trimester because I was expecting the second to be all lollipops and rainbows. Huge pregnancy lie, as far as I'm concerned.</p> <p>I went with 28 weeks. That's when the majority of my books/apps seemed to say, but I say go with whatever makes you feel better about where you are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546968 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 11:21:39 +0000 heartonastring 546968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@septemberlove: +1</p> <p>Based on the math, I started declaring myself to be in the third tri when I hit 27 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546901 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:57:54 +0000 Dandelion 546901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I said 28 cause that's when my bi-weekly appointments started. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546885 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:52:40 +0000 lomom 546885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol, I would think, mathematically, 40/3=13.33x2=26.66... so sometime mid-week 26 but I've read everywhere from 26 to 28. </p> <p>I'm 25.5 weeks and am sooo ready to be able to say 3rd trimester! lol, I feel like it's a much more sympathetic trimester, everyone seems to have this idea that the 2nd tri is all oodles of energy and sunshine, but the whole pregnancy has been tough for me (and I'm just whiny in general because compared to some of the super ladies on here, I've got it so easy). Especially the moms of multiples, I bow down to them for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546808 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:15:19 +0000 Bao 546808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted 26 but that's just the one I decided to go with during pregnancy...I never knew the right answer! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546791 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:05:36 +0000 autumnlove 546791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted other on accident. 27 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-does-the-third-trimester-start-1#post-546781 Sun, 03 Feb 2013 10:02:13 +0000 lomom 546781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Why is this such a complicated question? lol, I've googled it and every website has a different answer! </p>
