How do you feel at 25 weeks?

[Pluto13]

Im 25 weeks and 2 days and just noticng a few changes and wondered if others have noticed the same.

I've not felt baby move as much the last 2 days a few movements here and there but not as much as before.
I've out on just over a stone in weight.
My skin is itching lots
I'm getting pulling pains down the front on my uterus near the bottom
Im getting back pains getting on and off a seat
cramps and spasms in my feet and legs

anyone else want to share symptoms/ailments?

Hello Pluto I'm 25 weeks today. I generally feel ok, can't complain too much. I haven't felt baby since yesterday (although literally as I'm typing this, he seems to be waking up!); I too have put on over a stone in weight; my skin is starting to itch; I get pain in my coccyx when I get up from my office chair; I get the odd sciatica type pain sometimes when walking now. I find I feel better in the mornings and then tired in the afternoons. I also find baby tends to be more active when I'm lying down.

omg i never knew so much would change at 25 weeks!
im not that far off but iv noticed that hes been a lot quieter lately and iv been getting cramps in my toes!i think thats all i got for now tho :/x

 

[Pluto13]

Thanks for sharing ladies, Poshie our ailments sound very similar, Im the same ok in the mornings then zonked in the afternoons, then I pick up at home time ha!

 

[Poshie]

Yeah, I could quite happily leave work after lunch I really could. Some days I struggle to keep my eyes open!

 

[Pluto13]

Im the same, I've sneaked off to the loo's for a snooze on more than one occassion!

I am 25+2 am very tired, finding baby is getting legs stuck under my ribs a lot which is clearly not going to get much better! Baby moves mostly when lying down - but kicks getting stronger every day. It has the occasional quiet day but usually returns the next day stronger to make up for it!! Have also been getting Braxton Hicks - only when very tired or doing too much.

Am 24+3 so almost there!

Have been feeling baby less over the last few days after it went crazy at the weekend/Monday - doctor said it's nothing to worry about since baby's heartbeat's nice and strong, but to go to the hospital for a checkup if I get worried or it gets less.

Have put on just under a stone in weight but it seems to be mainly bump and boobs (have gone up 4 cup sizes which is very exciting for someone who's never previously been bigger than a B cup ). Am actually finding it hard to eat too much at once - makes me feel quite bloated - so am having to eat little and often.

Getting very gassy and bloated most afternoons which is lovely.

Slight constipation (but was much worse in first trimester).

Have been itching from time to time but nothing too bad.

Had horrendous stretching pains at 18 weeks for a few days but they've gone. Still get some low down though - in the middle at the bottom of my groin.

Back and chest / ribs generally hurt by about 4pm.

And am exhausted, no matter how much I sleep…

No cravings which is annoying - really want to send OH out for something random to eat at 3am!

i'm 26 weeks today and im finding that im feeling/symptoms are:

heartburn quite a lot
cramping of my legs in the night which is really painful and annoying because i have to keep jumping out of bed to stretch my muscle out haha!
finding that im still peeing a lot more so in the night
generally very moody,emotional,short tempered but think thats because im getting bigger
as far as the baby is concerned she has quiet days then really lively days. im finding that her movements are getting slower. like more big slow kicks than lots of little kicks
she has been quite quiet today and yesterday though i have still felt her move a bit x

 

[beatnick]

ive also had quiet days but then the next day seems to be twice the power! do you think they are growing on those quiet days. or perhaps having some r&r!

Ive had a bit of indigestion and the occassional sciatica pain. have put on over a stone and my clothes selection is limited but have not progressed a dress size on the top half- just round the ass and belly!

Seem to be much more energised, had some braxton hicks but seems to be easing now.

bump is growing by the day i swear! friends say i look really well (im not sure if its a truth or reassurance!)

this is a good phase for me (touch wood)

Bubs is going mad for me at the moment kicking most of the day and turning right round lol. Maybe I'm going to have a hyperactive child!
My pelvis aches soo much and I'm starting to get backache too
And generally feeling extremely exhausted.. it takes me well over an hour in the morning to wake up properly, open my eyes and finally get up!

I have to say this week I've started feeling SO tired, and I'm only 20 weeks today! Yay to the halfway mark for me

If I'm tired now I'm dreading the next 20 weeks for tiredness!

 

[beachlover1]

Im 25 weeks + and so far i cant really complain!!

Symptoms: baby moves a fair bit, but slower more distinctive movements....rather than wriggles.

I sometimes get heartburn, my cocxyxx really hurts when i have been sitting in an office type chair! and i bushed!! other than that its all uneventful really! Oh and I have put on a stone!!!!! x

I'm almost 25 weeks and i have noticed things change very recently too.
I've just hit the stone mark in weight gain
My tummy is itchy
My sleep has gone out of the window
Appetite increased - alot!
Very gassy and bloated in the afternoons
V. tired but thats probably because i'm not sleeping!
Getting more back pain
I get pressure pains sometimes in the evening after going for a pee.
Bubs is still pretty active at the moment but he definately has his quiet days - i guess only one more week before we need to monitor movement a bit more.

Can't believe its 25 weeks already (Well almost for me).

I'm 24+2 with my sixth baby.

I was 7st 3lb before I got pregnant and I'm now 9st!!!! OMG!! That's more than I weighed when I gave birth to the last two! It's all on my hips, bum, thighs and boobs

I am feeling more tired now than I did in first tri which has surprised me cos I expected to feel all "glowy" at this stage!

Baby moves a lot in the evenings but is quiet during the day.

I have greasy hair and skin.

And I eat anything that isn't nailed down (hence the almost 2st weight gain!!!).

Hey, I'm 25+4 and like some others my bubs is kicking more forcefully- sometimes she wakes me up in the night. I also get really uncomfortably full now if I eat too much, and my bump has gone firm and moved up. And I'm tired again- my 2nd tri glowing / energetic period seemed to be awfully short!

actually I wanted to ask you guys- are your bumps firm?

 

[Pluto13]

yes my bump seems to be quite hard.
