What a future mother should know: 38 weeks of pregnancy

38 weeks of pregnancy is the time when mom and baby are almost ready to meet each other. However, preparations for this momentous day are still in full swing.

What's going on with the baby?

At the thirty-eighth week of pregnancy, the baby is still preparing for life outside her cozy house. Its head gradually descends closer to the "exit". Externally, the child already looks like a "newborn."

The skin is pinkish and has almost already got rid of the fluffy hairs covering the body. Currently, the development of the endocrine and nervous systems is mainly progressing. The fingers are almost completely covered with a nail layer.

The intestines are able to promote "primordial feces" (those waste products that a human received in the womb when swallowing amniotic fluid: downy hairs, dead skin particles, decayed blood cells).The baby will be able to get rid of "meconium" almost immediately after birth. The baby is still rapidly gaining weight (approximately 28-30 grams per day). His height averages from 46 cm to 48 cm, and he weighs about 3 kg.

What happens in a woman's body?

The more mom puts on weight, the more often she feels uncomfortable. At the 38th week of pregnancy, fatigue and drowsiness that prevailed in the first trimester may return. There may be a feeling of increased anxiety, insomnia, suspiciousness, irritability and increased attention to small things. This is especially true for women who are pregnant for the first time. There is also a desire to run to the toilet more often.

The woman's body is still preparing for the process of giving birth to a new man to be successful. In this regard, the bones move apart and become more flexible, which can cause sharp pain in the pelvic region, perineum and lower back. If the pain is severe, then it is better to consult a doctor. He will help prescribe painkillers that will not harm the baby.

During the 38th week of pregnancy, you should pay more attention to your own body. So to speak, enjoy the last days of solitude. After all, very soon you can just forget about lying quietly in the bathtub, reading a book, getting your hair done, manicure, pedicure. Special attention should be paid to the chest and tummy at this time.

Do not forget about the cream for stretch marks and daily massage of these body parts. Otherwise, stretch marks and sagging breasts cannot be avoided. 1xBet attire de nombreux joueurs grâce à ses conditions avantageuses.
