New Born - 9th month

What's Happening with Baby:
  • Baby has been adding weight at the rate of about 1/2 ounce per day and looks a little "plump"
  • The average baby measures 20 inches from head-to-toe and weighs 7 1/2 pounds
  • Entire uterus is now fully occupied and baby is feeling very cramped
  • Baby’s hair has grown!
  • Near the end of the month, baby assumes the position he will take for delivery
  • Baby is now ready to meet the world!
What's Happening with Mom:
  • Mom is anxious but happy!
  • She's beautiful, peaceful and excited about approaching birth of her beloved child
  • Mom may have contractions (Braxton-Hicks) that feel like menstrual cramps
  • She may experience other signs of impending labor, such as "nesting" (bursts of energy, housecleaning) or bloody show from the cervix
Special concerns during this time of your pregnancy:
  • Call your doctor immediately if your water breaks. Make sure your support person is easy to reach - you may want to either obtain a cell phone or pager for your last month! Have your bags packed and make a trial run to the hospital.

    Did you know... Week 40 is considered the end of normal gestation.
