Just think about yourself and ur baby.. I am also in my third trimester.. I dnt care what others are doing for me.. I just do my duty which is to take care of myself and my baby.. Dnt let yourself suffer with all those things.. The best thing is that your in law is not with you otherwise they would have given you hell lot of stress. Remain stress free at rhis time and enjoy a life within you..

Hello Priya, I am a proud mother of a month old baby. My suggestion is just enjoy 'We' time together with your husband instead of feeling sad about no elder is with you. Get all possible pampering from him. Because once baby comes... you are second priority for all. Me n my husband thoroughly enjoyed pregnancy alone far from home. My mother accompanied me only before 1 week of delivery. I was working, cooking and driving till the last date and it is completely safe if you are comfortable. About third trimester diet, have atleast 5-6 meals. Including milk, fruits, dry fruits, green vegetables. You will undergo glucose test in 8th month. If glucose level is found high then you must need to cut short sugar and milk content. Continue exercise as suggested by your doctor. eg. Squats, spinal twist, lower back lift or atleast walk for 30-40 minutes everyday. Also perform breathing exercises regularly to improve your stamina and avoid breathlessness in last few days. You may feel constipation as a result of reducing tummy space. one effective way is to have Castor oil. I used to take 2 table spoons with warm water on empty stomach once a week from 9th month. You can increase frequency of having Castor oil as your due date approaches.
