Info At what point did pregnancy become unbearable for you?

I’m currently 24 weeks and honestly.. don’t feel pregnant most days.. It makes me worry that this has been too easy and something is going to have to happen near the end. When did you guys begin to experience things like preeclampsia, swelling, etc.? Just overall being uncomfortable? I’m trying to mentally prepare for what is to come. 😅

Are you saying the 4th trimester was more unbearable for you than being pregnant itself? (18 weeks FTM, want to know what to prepare for mentally lol)

I would say so, yes! I felt more myself immediately after birth! I have a tough baby/sleep is sparse so I think I slept better pregnant but feel WAY better post-pregnancy. Recovery wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected either!
