35+5 and feeling great! Is this normal?! 😂

Question

Keep seeing so many people tired, achy, in pain and fed up around this stage.. but I feel like I did in second trimester still. Feeling good! No pain at all, no BH either?! I am now on maternity so not working, but staying active walking and swimming for 45mins 3/4 times a week. Today I even managed to swim for an hour. I feel like I’ve got a burst of energy the last week.. which usually means labour is close, but I don’t think I’m that close! I’ve literally loved every minute of being pregnant though, and just excited for labour and ready to meet him.
Been worried because I’m feeling so good it means labour is no where near though?! 😩 and I really want him to arrive early! 🙏
Anyone else in the same boat or felt good right til the end before?
Pic just for the sake of it! 😂 love my bump! 💙

Answer

I hate you... 🤣 kidding, you’re looking great! I look like a beached whale currently, 35 weeks. I’ve been in so much pain from about 25 weeks, before that it was headaches constantly and nausea.. can’t say it’s been a “fun” pregnancy but I can’t wait to meet my little boy.

Answer

I felt amazing when I was pregnant with my daughter the entire time and I was 5 days late. Worked and worked out up until the end and my labor was super short and easy. This one not so much. It is so nice to have an easy pregnancy.

Answer

My first pregnancy I was like that, loved being pregnant, worked out 5 times a week until the day before he was born, didn’t get all the pregnant issues others had.  This pregnancy has been the total opposite, every ache & pain you could imagine, unable to workout or even walk really due to SPD,just goes to show each pregnancy really is totally different.  Glad you are enjoying it, I just loved my first pregnancy and it kept me very positive through the first few hard months with a newborn x

Answer

I’m 37 +1 and I feel great! I even have a bit of a cold right now and I’m still doing my thing. Everyone else is being a Debbie downer with “just wait...” yeah, I know I’m about to have a baby......

Answer

Didnt think that was possible lol. Im having heaps of aches 😂

Answer

I was like that up until I hit 35 weeks! I’d say stay active! It’s so hard for me to stay active but I feel the best on the days that I go on my one hour walks and I’m up and cleaning all day. If I spend most of my time laying down then I feel like absolute garbage

Answer

Nope! I never got any pain with my first and had him at 39 weeks! I’m currently 35 weeks and I still feel like my usual self, the only thing that hurts is my back a little towards the end of the day and that’s usually when I’m like okay I need to go to bed 🤷‍♀️

Answer

I felt awesome at 35 weeks, It doesn't go to hell untill your 37 weeks then you have to pee every five minutes and feel like you just ran up a flight of stairs just walking to the next room.
I also didn't have swelling untill now.
