The future baby doesn’t stop moving and knows how to be chatty in his own way. This month, we need to focus on delivery and conduct the third and final ultrasound.
The seventh month of pregnancy represents the last virtual meeting with the baby
At the beginning of the third trimester of pregnancy, it’s time for the third ultrasound where you’ll be delighted to see your little one one last time before his arrival into the world.
Your baby makes you feel like he’s present and fills you with joy. However, these four weeks are accompanied by extreme fatigue, as circulation slows down and you desperately need rest. Moreover, if you feel exhausted, your doctor can grant you sick leave.
During this seventh month of pregnancy, you should meet with the labor nurse at your fifth pre-delivery appointment. She can prescribe a vitamin (D) ampoule for your health and the baby’s health. In case of threat of preterm labor, she will explain how to recognize contractions and warning signs of the baby’s arrival, as well as conditions for your care.
The pain in your legs and back still persists. You may also be prone to hemorrhoids. You have trouble sleeping and can experience cramps at any time. It’s important to drink plenty of ideally low-mineral mineral water. It’s also recommended for pregnant women.
During the seventh month of pregnancy, the fetus grows and interacts
His reactions are still random, but the kicks are getting louder and louder. Thanks to these movements, you understand that he hears you and recognizes certain sounds.
Expectant fathers often find these little scenes very entertaining. In fact, sometimes you can see your baby’s hands or feet pushing your belly. His facial features become clearer, you’ll notice that during the third ultrasound. His ears are also forming, and his skin becomes smoother.
The brain continues to develop, and the lungs are now functioning. For this reason, you may also feel your baby when he hiccups because he swallows a large amount of amniotic fluid. He measures 35 cm and weighs on average one and a half kilograms by the end of the seventh month of pregnancy.
In short, if you’re extremely tired during this seventh month of pregnancy, don’t hesitate to request sick leave from the healthcare provider who’s following you, and discuss with him your pain and the possibility of vitamin deficiencies.
On the other hand, the baby takes up a little more space every day. He’s even able to communicate with you.
