Night and day dear. At 5 months pregnant my energy was back up and morning sickness was gone, I felt great. My baby dropped around 32 weeks and every day I swear I notice a new pain. I am tired again, I waddle, there is a ton of pressure on my bladder, I have frequent Braxton Hicks, back aches, heartburn, indigestion, and to top it all off I can't sleep. I am not trying to scare you, but it sucks. Every woman is different so maybe you will be one of the lucky ones and things won't be so bad, but either way it is all still worth it and I wouldn't change a thing.

Every pregnancy is different. I am 24 weeks with my 3rd child now, and let me tell you it has been a ride so far! LOL! With my first son, everything went real good, I never had any discomfort except not being able to get comfortable. My second was a nightmare! I felt really good until I got to about 8 months along. Then every time I would walk it felt like the baby was gonna fall out because of all the pelvic pressure. My back was always hurting from the extra weight, and I could never get comfortable anytime at all. When you start getting closer to your due date, many women get excited and nervous and even pretty snippy knowing that the time is coming. And that has alot to do with it also. So I hope I was able to help alittle, and I was you all the luck in the world. Just remember everyone is different, but getting closer to delivery time adds weight and an aching body, so relax while you can even if you feel fine when you are that far along.

Ummm, I felt pretty good at 5 months even though I was still throwing up every day (it lasted the whole 9 months). I think that by 9 months, you will feel tiiiiired and ready to give birth but I did not feel bad - hard to say - we are all SO different :) Good luck and enjoy being preggers....

I cant speak for everyone but for me? 9 months was the worst! I couldnt sleep and my back hurts and my ribs hurt and I cant breath because the baby is pushing up on my lungs its hard to get up from the couch my feet gets swollen and people start saying how cute it is when I wobble ( walk) haha and worse the anxiety of it all-- wondering if that was a contraction I felt or not everyday and just waitting and wondering if today is the big day or not! ITS ALL SO WORTH IT THOUGH!!! Enjoy your 2nd trimester while you can. Congrats and best wishes! :)

This may sound terrible, but at 9 months, all I wanted was for my daughter to be out of me. I was constantly tired from not being able to get comfortable enough to sleep at night, it was hard to walk, even my maternity clothes were getting tight...I was ready. At 5 months, I was still wrapped up in the joy of every little kick and punch. And now, I miss the kicks...

I hope this doesnt scare you lol.
hes so low that when he moves his hands it feels like hes pinching me (by the way im 39weeks 5 days pregnant) but hes so big that i still get kicked in the ribs.
- he leans on my sciatic nerve and it causes horrible back,butt and leg pains on my right side.
- from my pelvic bones spreading, getting ready for labor and delivery i have really bad pelvic/pubic pain that also hurts my inner thighs. But it doesnt get too bad if i sleep in a recliner chair or if i sleep on me left side with a pillow folded between my legs.
- Ive had really bad heart burn but it helps if you drink a lot of water and you will find tums to be your best friend. also eating a slice of bread or dry toast will help.
- sometimes when hes moving if he pushes to hard it hurts but im going to miss feeling him kick and move around once hes born.
- i have been so swollen its crazy. My doctors have me under close watch with the swelling and blood pressure to make sure i dont have preeclamsia or toxemia. the swelling has getten so bad in my feet that they hurt and i cant move my toes (if this happens to you its best to drink more water and to sleep with your feet elevated)
- ive gain 7 lbs in one week but most of it was retained water and that would explain the swelling (what i dont understand is that they told me to drink more water with the swelling but it was retained water) But drinking more water did help with the swelling so it will all work out.
- you freak out if you dont feel him kick a lot.
but one thing i actually LOVE is when he has the hiccups! I dont know why but i do it feels weird but its pretty cool.

you will be really tired of being pregnant. your body will be more sore and tired b/c you will be carrying extra weight. your back will probably hurt more. it will be hard to get comfy. you may get stretchmarks. BUT the baby will almost be here then! yippee! it will all be worth it and you'll forget how hard it was. you will have a new meaning of hard. congrats!

Well you'll feel more tired, you'll won't be able to eat as much because there is less room. You'll be sore from head to toe.
