so when does this 3rd trimester "pop" happen?

I was seeing the pics of another member of twinstuff who is 33 weeks along and looks absolutely gorgeous, but i kept reading in the responses that soon the "pop" will occur? Are you serious? there's yet another "pop"? When? I am 35 weeks along my first pregnancy, twin boys. I'll be 36 on Sunday. I mean, every Monday I feel considerably heavier and bigger, a pop is something that happens out of the blue dramatic. Please share when this takes place so I can brace myself. I have not dialated yet and I selfishly fear I'm gonna carry til 38 weeks+. I don't know how much more I can take... I wanna see my babies already!

 

I didn't see that other thread, but when people refer to a "pop" at the end of pregnancy, they often mean when your bellybutton pops out. But with my twins, this happened at about 20 weeks!

 

I'll post my belly pics. I don't know about popping again. My belly button slowly turned inside out though, and now it sort of sticks out - but it was pretty deep.
Honestly, a few months ago I couldn't IMAGINE being 37/38 weeks pregnant w/ this gigantic belly (after seeing others' pics) but it happens gradually, so it's not so bad It is HEAVY though!!!

You look great! I would say you popped in the last 3 weeks! There is a big difference in the last two pics!

 

my button never popped, it lurked right at the rim of the belly. It liked weird.

 

My button popped in the first tri, but my belly never did get too much bigger than it did with my singleton. Then again, my babies weights combined were about what she weighed on her own!

 

No pop here....almost though!
