Which trimester would you all say has been the most overwhelming for you?

Question

I can hands down say my most difficult trimester was the second. I was an emotional mess and I couldn’t handle the flood of emotions that were being put on me. 
I will say that I had very minor “physical symptoms”, the worst I had was food aversions & hip pain.

Answer

Third for sure. My first and second were a breeze (barely any symptoms, didn't even feel pregnant at times). I can't complain even now, as I know I've had it easy. But the third has brought heartburn and difficulty sleeping. It's also overwhelming to think of everything I need to do and how little time there really is left.

Answer

Definitely the first. I threw up several times every single day and could barely even eat. I also had horrible headaches almost every day. Second trimester was pretty easy and currently the third trimester is slightly harder than the second lol. Just getting super tired and sore

Answer

All have had their ups and downs. The first was exciting because we had been trying for 9 months, but also throwing up and keeping a huge secret was torture. The second was best physically but the hardest mentally, I think I wanted to get so much done now that I had the energy and knew it'd go away with the third so I put a ton of pressure on myself, we got a ton of things done around the house and preparing wise but it was overwhelming and I had a few breakdowns when I felt like I'd never get it all done. The third so far has been great mentally but I'm so tired and sore all the time and the things left to do are big and important so it's a lot but it feels way more manageable than the second did mentally. Overall I've enjoyed pregnancy 90% of the time but each trimester had its unique 10% that made me crazy!

Answer

My discomfort now just can't come close to how bad it was with my exhaustion in the first trimester! First is worst.

Answer

These severe and painful Braxton Hicks have definitely made my third the hardest for me. Along with those also having  normal stuff like leg cramps, etc.

Answer

I bled through most of the first trimester with no explanation and just kept being told I had a 50/50 shot of continuing pregnancy. It was the absolute worst thing I have ever been through followed by horrible depression in the 2nd that is just now managed with meds into the early 3rd. We'll see how the 3rd goes but if I get PUPPPS again i'll say i'm 0/3.

Answer

My third with this baby has been awful so far. Extreme back and hip pain. Baby is so low I have terrible pelvic pressure. My emotions have been every where. I’ve already started effacing as wel

Answer

Emotionally second for sure. On top of also have nausea and vomiting through most of it. Getting diagnosed with GD. Now in my third it’s more discomfort and dealing with the fatigue from my anemia. But I’m more excited.
