What's Happening with Baby:
- Hair is beginning to grow on head
- Toenails are just starting to grow
- Sweat glands begin to develop
- Skin turns from transparent to opaque
- Baby is now about seven inches long and weighs about 10-12 ounces
- Sucking reflex begins to work
- Bones become harder and stronger
- Baby becomes more coordinated as he turns, stretches and kicks
- Baby can hear now
What's Happening with Mom:
- Mom gains three to four pounds
- Secretions of colostrum from breasts may occur
- Swelling of extremities may begin when mom is inactive for long periods
- Major movement by baby (Mom can feel kicking and other activity from baby)
- Backaches may result as muscles begin to loosen in preparation for delivery
- Mom daydreams... fantasizing about herself as a mother!
Special concerns during this time of your pregnancy:
- During this time, your baby continues to rely on your healthy eating habits. Avoid constipation as it can increase the chance of hemorrhoids developing. Walk daily to maintain circulation and overall good health, but make sure to wear low-heeled shoes to avoid back strain.
