I feel like the 3rd trimester is the worst. Not sleeping good, heartburn, out of breath, exhausted and anxious. Interested to see how everyone else feels!

Ugh Third! First I was tired and felt generally icky, but third was just miserable. I was too anxious about birth to be "ready" the way some moms are, but wanted pregnancy to be over. I was exceptionally moody and anxious about getting every single thing done. To be honest, the bad part of third trimester didn't start until the last six weeks, but those were rough!

@Mrs. Sketchbook: I completely agree! The last few weeks are just brutal!

Third! I had nausea for my first but my third was full of reflux, sleepless nights and wrist pain.

@autumnlove: Eakk! Aren't you coming up on the 3rd again pretty soon? Maybe it will be easier for you!

Probably my third, just because I started getting uncomfortable in all my clothes. I had a really good pregnancy though, so I can't really complain too much about either.

It was hard for me to decide, but 3rd due to high blood pressure & heartburn!

First! I had pretty bad morning sickness. And I was so tired! Third wasn't too bad for me. I'll take the 3rd tri over the nausea of the 1st tri any day.

First time around first was the toughest, because by third I was feeling more confident that this was actually happening! This time, third is way worse: I'm tired, chasing after a toddler, and anxious about the birth.

Definitely the third. I'm just as exhausted only now my hips hurt, I can't sleep, I have 24/7 heartburn, I'm hungry all the time but can't eat anything I'm craving because I have GD, and I'm anxious and ready to him to get here. Compared with this, in the first trimester I had no morning sickness and was basically just exhausted. I was really worried because I had a lot of bleeding but otherwise it was a breeze!

First. Third sucked, I was uncomfortable for all the normal reasons. But first I had severe migraines and they were gone by the third. I'll take anything over migraines.

1st trimester was the worst for me...exhaustion and all day nausea. I was as big as a house towards the end of my pregnancy but had way more energy and felt pretty great up until my due date

Definitely the third. I was sick as I'd been during the first but also couldn't sleep, was in a lot of pain, couldn't bend over...very very physically uncomfortable.

1st was pretty bad because I was at high risk for miscarriage, the wait was just agonizing. 3rd was tough because he was facing the wrong way so I had horrendous back pain and was so swollen I could barely walk. But..,the end was in sight!

First. The heartburn, vag bone pain, heaviness and INSANE swelling etc of the third was brutal but four straight months of puking and nor even be able to stand up without heaving was way worse. Pregnancy did not suit me.

3rd, by FAR. Pelvic pain, swelling, reflux, trouble walking, peeing constantly, weird discharge from my va-jay-jay, back pain, horrible gas.... ugh. I hated being pregnant.

3rd was pretty bad with charlie because i gained so much weight, but the nausea/food aversion feeling was worse so i'm gonna have to go with first. esp since my 3rd trimester with olive was a breeze since i didn't gain that much weight.
