Pregnancy Symptoms in the Third Trimester

[Misskylie]

I hear you about the sleeping liss_jay.

It takes me about 10 mins to get out of bed everytime I need to go to the loo (5 times a night ) Its just so painful, my hips and pelvis ache something shocking! Its been like this for about 2 months now, but its gotten to the point where Im pretty much on bed rest! I think I might have that SPD ( Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction) oh well lets just hope im in the %5 of women who go into labor on their due date

My hair changes colour!!!

Happened with DS in the 3rd tri too. I am naturally a dark blonde, but in my 3rd tri my hair turns dark brown like REALLY dark, but only on my head, eye brows and underarms. My leg hair is still super blonde so you cannot see it. From memory DS was at least 3 months old before my hair went back to it's normal colour.

Nasty calf cramps in the middle of the night!!! They are so excruciating and my leg just locks up with toes pointed, that i have to try to stand up and pull toes back. As a consequence of this, my calves feels like I have pulled muscles.

Back ache, sore tight abdomen just to name a few.

yes my biggest thing is my calf muscles in the night, wake up in pain from cramping! ob said to take some magnesium if it gets worse

and extremely weak but have discovered my iron levels are low so on tablets for that

that's really it at the moment....
