Wondering how to tell which trimester you’re in? If any of the following situations apply to you, you can bet you’re in your third trimester of pregnancy and are almost ready to pop!
– You’re starting to forget what it feels like to be truly comfortable. Didn’t lounging on your couch used to feel good?
– You’re pretty much over the whole pregnancy thing. Isn’t it time for this baby to come out already?
– You’re more or less outraged when your due date passes and not so much as a cramp happens in your abdominal region.
– You’re beginning to wonder if it’s possible that your baby could snap your ribs with all that kicking going on.

– Each time you walk into a public place, you can’t help but wonder if your water’s going to break. Isn’t that what always happens in the movies?
– You can barely sleep at night because of the excitement.

– You always feel like you’re forgetting something each time you evaluate the contents of your hospital bag. What could it be?
– You spend more time in the baby’s room than any other room in your house … except maybe the bathroom.
– After your due date’s passed, you start wondering if there’s a fourth trimester no one’s ever told you about. Has anyone ever been 10 months pregnant?
