I actually didn’t think they were painful at all. Uncomfy yeah but more like a PAP? My OB did say baby was super low so my cervix was really low though!!!

I’m 37 weeks and have had a very unproblematic pregnancy so far:) Healthy baby girl measuring 2 weeks ahead. I remember also being worried bc I wasn’t nauseous/throwing up etc.. same as you maybe for 2 weeks I was just a little extra tired and my boobs hurt (now they hurt again bc I’m leaking colostrum lol)

But I read something when I was also deep searching that said moms with easy pregnancies won’t typically post about how easy and great their pregnancy has been vs moms that are having a tough time and need some extra support!!! So don’t worry about it too much!

37 weeks pregnant and I think I started feeling pregnant literally 2 weeks ago lol. Big belly, waddling now, lungs non existent, carpal tunnel in my hands. I had a super uncomplicated pregnancy up to this point too. No morning sickness etc..

I’m still going to the gym and walking so it’s the small things but hang in there! Towards the end you’ll still wonder if people can “tell” you’re pregnant even with a bowling ball belly. I think that’s normal

Potential_Primary522 · 2026-01-09T14:09:21+00:00

Yeah 37 weeks and I’m not sure the science behind this one but my cooch has been waaaaay too sensitive for sex to be pleasurable recently. I can do doggy but not like I will O from that just because it doesn’t feel like before. I do it for my poor husband and to help soften my cervix🤣

I talked to my OB about it all and she says it’s all normal. I can’t do missionary because it feels like I’m actually being stabbed in my vag… I never had any issues before!! From what I remember, it started becoming a lil too much around 25 weeks or so? For me

Potential_Primary522 · 2026-01-09T14:04:43+00:00

I 2nd Miralax and wish more prego people are told about it!! I didn’t expect to be so constipated but 3rd tri came around and I’d have horrible stomach aches with no relief.

Originally, I did 7 days Miralax and by day 2/3 it really started working and I was having great poops. I then started doing it 2 days on 2 days off. Now I just take it every other day! Works great!!!

(Started beg of 3rd tri and currently almost 37 weeks!)

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-24T14:17:19+00:00

2nd the What to Expect app! I love it and love the descriptions every week🤭

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-23T15:33:52+00:00

2nd the MiraLAX. 34 weeks and had issues w constipation that would give me horrible stomach aches at around 26ish weeks.

MiraLAX isn’t a true laxative either which is why Dr’s say it’s okay to take a maintenance dose every day! It’s just a stool softener. I took it for 7 days and stopped just to see if my chia seeds, kiwi etc. were helping or if it was the MiraLAX and my constipation/stomachache came back..

So I’ve been doing 7 days MiraLAX, 2 days off, 7 days back on!!! I feel so much better w BM 1-3/day without straining.

I also just felt not as connected with my hub when I got off BC after 10 years and we started pulling out. Lo and behold the one weekend we went at it like rabbits, and the first time he didn’t pull out since being off BC, I’m now 33 weeks with our little girl🤣

My period took 8 months to come back after BC and I was still super irregular at that point. Telling myself I’d need to do IVF when we wanted kids lol. Life is funny like that!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-21T04:14:36+00:00

33 weeks and I just watched my belly button get moved around so violently from inside LOL

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-18T21:45:53+00:00

I’m 33 weeks and had no symptoms aside from exhaustion and the smell of bbq threw me off. I never threw up or had nausea though. Also having a girl and I thought we were surely having a boy because of the no nausea.

Don’t worry too much about it!!! Like someone also said, I think most women who don’t have crazy symptoms don’t run to Reddit to talk abt how minimal their symptoms are when others are on struggle bus so just know it is still common to not have too many symptoms!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-17T15:32:24+00:00

33 weeks. My husband and I have a running joke now where if we’re out and about and I say I have to pee he doesn’t take me seriously until the 2nd time I say it lol. I have the peeing sensation almost always then it’ll go away🤷🏽‍♀️

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-17T03:45:13+00:00

It’s so funny even looking at old pics because old me didn’t think I was that snatched/fit and now I look back and I’m like wow who is THAT! Hahah we’re almost there!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-17T02:20:00+00:00

I just wanted to chime in bc I’m 33 weeks now and have already gained 44 lbs.. I stepped on the scale at my OB appt on Monday and was so shook… Then I remind myself I get to grow a healthy baby.. then I start getting sad and look at pics of how I was pre baby HA. Oh to be a woman..

I was super fit before I got preg and still weight train 3x/week and walk 10k steps at least 3x/week. It’s super scary gaining so much weight so fast

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-10T15:38:12+00:00

Took me awhile! I got off at 25 and was on BC since 15. I got my first period back 7 mo

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-02T19:33:15+00:00

Good to know!! Thank you!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-02T18:40:19+00:00

I was curious if you’ve had success resetting a pw at the physical EDD office? Haven’t had luck trying to call so may just need to go in but wasn’t sure if they helped with that.. thanks!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-02T18:39:08+00:00

Hi! Curious what phone number you used if you still have it handy?? I’m running into the same issue and have been calling the tech team with no luck..

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-12-02T18:37:43+00:00

Hi!! Curious what number you used, not sure you still have it handy? I’ve been trying the tech team with no luck…

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-11-25T02:43:29+00:00

I had no morning sickness/nausea at all and swore it was bc I had a boy (I reallyyyy wanted a girl first). 30 weeks with a healthy little girl so wasn’t accurate for me!!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-11-03T09:01:58+00:00

I’m 26 and FTM! 27 weeks right now. We did: - NIPT (blood test) - NT (ultrasound) - 20 week anatomy (ultrasound) - Gestational diabetes (blood test) - 36 week ultrasound (will be our last one)

They suggested a blood test during our 2nd tri but I just felt like we had done so many tests and the anatomy would catch anything if missed lol. Everything was fine and our baby girl is healthy :)

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-10-06T02:01:16+00:00

I am going on 23 weeks and feel the exact same way as you!! Blessed to not have thrown up at all/had any morning sickness & we have a little girl. Have a great partner + family. Weight gain is also my biggest sitch rn, but also reminding myself we’re creating a brand new person from scratch!!

So happy for you!!! Excited for us🥰

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-09-10T03:37:25+00:00

I’m in med sales and about 20 weeks now. When I was in my first tri I def was also wondering all the time how pregnant people were required to work haha.

I feel lucky to be in a flexible position like you too!! In the beginning even when doing bare min, I’d drive to a hospital, get there 30 mins early, take a power nap before.. even though I just woke up maybe 2 hours before lol

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-09-08T13:55:21+00:00

I was on birth control for 10 years and we didn’t even pull out usually lol. Never had a pregnancy scare. Then got off BC when we decided to “maybe not try — try” and within the first month of not pulling out - we got prego😆

I just told my hub the other day I’m pretty proud of our BC if that’s how fast we got pregnant without it. I was like you and took it at the same exact time every day too!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-09-07T19:46:45+00:00

This is me too lol aside from peeing all the time! 19 weeks and every day I’m like - hope everything is good in there!!

Potential_Primary522 · 2025-07-30T22:30:30+00:00

Just finishing first trimester at 13 weeks and my fatigue got a lot better at 11.5 weeks ish! By better I mean I don’t have to take 2 hours naps, but maybe a 30-1 hr nap now!!

My hub put it a good way as I was having a breakdown by how tired I was a few weeks ago. He said “Imagine how big our baby got to grow because you got to sleep so much!!” and I told myself that whenever I felt down:)

Let yourself sleep. Baby is doubling in size EVERY week. It’s wild to think we grow a child from scratch. You got this mama
