Week 33-36 was rough for my pregnancies for LO 1 and 2! Poor sleep, wrist pain, hand pain, back pain, leg cramps, reflux, coughing = peeing, etc!

I could probably list good weeks on one hand? Sorry, I'm no help
37 weeks was when life really sucked. I did nothing to make others happy, I was pretty much an angry troll

I went on bedrest at 32 weeks. The two weeks before that I was in outrageous pain and just could not get around. Being in bed all day helped somewhat. It got bad again around 36? But really, being pregnant with twins it was all downhill after 24 weeks or so.

39.
I've had really easy pregnancies, but as soon as it rolls to 39 weeks I am D.O.N.E.

The late 20s were rough for me actually. I think that was before LO flipped and settled head down. She liked to dance on my bladder and I was really uncomfortable. Also weeks 6-13 just sucked. Weeks 38+ were sort of uncomfortable because I had back pain and pelvic bone pain if I was on my feet or walked too much, but that didn't bother me a lot because I knew I was close and it didn't hurt once I was relaxing.

I really didn't have any time I'd consider bad last time, pregnancy wise. Emotionally is a whole 'nother story, but physically I was pretty comfortable. I mean, not totally, but nothing bad bad. I am curious to see if that changes once this one goes farther, since that one was only to 33 weeks.

33-34. Heartburn, sore hips, crushing fatigue, shortness of breath. After that my belly popped a little more and made some room for my organs and I felt better.

Last time around, nothing was as bad as the 24/7 nausea from 4-15 weeks... Not even the crazy swelling I had near the end. We'll see what happens this time.

Last time, weeks 6-17 or 18 were the worst...because of the extreme nausea. After that, nothing else seemed as bad (the back pain and peeing and pelvic pain was much easier for me to deal with than 4 months of nausea).

I thought I had it rough with my first two pregnancies, but they had NOTHING on weeks 31 to 39 with my third pregnancy. I retained so much water that I lost over 30 lbs in just the hospital after delivery. I couldn't wear SHOES! I couldn't sleep at all, because I had a 9 pounder growing in me, with extra amniotic fluid (according to my doc, there was a lot of amniotic fluid in there). It was bad. So so so bad.

i would much rather take the end of pregnancy than the beginning with the morning sickness. i would say anytime morning sickness was present, that was the most uncomfortable.

nothing at the end could compare to the horror of sickness at the beginning!

The first trimester nausea sucked so, so hard. That was easily the worst for me.

Weeks 20-26.... mostly because of outside factors that were just made so much more difficult in the fact that i was pregnant. In those 6 weeks, I developed a kidney stone and was hospitalized for 3 days, got into a car accident that would have been minor but landed me in L&D observation for the better part of a day, had a lot of stress and emotional strife because of a family members wedding.
Other than some heat swelling, and trouble sleeping the rest was a breeze! I worked up until i went in labor 2 weeks early.

33-37, the weather was warm and I was SO swollen. Thank goodness DS was born at 37 weeks, I'm not sure I would have been able to go on and I certainly would have been barefoot.

4-9 from morning sickness, then 37-40 just uncomfortable feeling big and all - especially because i couldn't sleep properly.

I was uncomfortable for a lot of them - bad morning sickness - then anemic. Once the iron started kicking in around 34 weeks I felt better and better each week. The day I went into labor was the best I felt all pregnancy. Probably in the minority here haha.

First pregnancy: 6-15 weeks (all day sickness) and 36-39 weeks.
this prengnacy: so far so good, although as I get closer I know the bad sleep, all night peeing, increased heartburn, and back aching will be starting sooner than I hope.

Well, weeks 240 to 320 were pretty tough, but I'm getting a second wind here at 480 weeks.
I think this kid is just kind of floating up and down and it directly relates on how good or bad I feel!

Glad to see some people thought the first tri was worse than the final weeks in the third tri. I'm 27 weeks now and definitely hoping that the most uncomfortable weeks were 6-12 when I could barely stay awake, couldn't eat most food, AND couldn't even tell people what was going on.

Weeks 6-14 were pretty awful. However, I'm having a hard time remembering that now at week 36--size of a cow, can't breathe, etc.

With #1 weeks 6-10 with all day sickness were hard while working long shifts. Then I remember around 34 weeks emotionally I had a really hard time for about a week. It was a pretty easy pregnancy in general though
With this one I'm going into week 36 and I'm pretty done. Mostly at night. I have pretty bad insomnia which is hard with a 17 month old running around.

34 weeks I started having contractions all the time. It went downhill from there.

7-12 (morning sickness) and 36-39 (back pain butt pain can not sleep and feel like hauling a bag of rocks at all times, running to the bathroom nonstop)

All third trimester. I have a short torso, so I had to support my LOs with just my ligaments. By the end of my pregnacy with M, my pelvis hurt sooo bad. Such a relief to get those people out of me!
