Baby's Development:

 

The baby's muscles are getting stronger every day.

 

The legs are in good proportion to the rest of the body from this point onwards.

 

Its movements become even more complex and acrobatic.  These games will be the basis for your daily rhythm from now on, especially when you go to bed.

 

Your baby is growing quickly, by now it is about half the length it will be at birth (but only about 12% of the weight).

Baby's Profile:        Size:       -  22.5 cm

Her Emotions:

 

Your emotions are becoming more strained as you get annoyed with the constant interruption in your daily routine.

 

Nightmares can also invade your sleeping hours.

 

Think of this as good training for becoming a "parent", but speak about it with your partner or friends to ease things.

His Emotions:

 

Be prepared to start waking up in the middle of the night (you need to practice for later anyway).  Listen to your partner's thoughts and emotions, don't say too much because you will always get in return... "But you can never understand what I'm going through!"

Useful Information:

 

At this stage of pregnancy, you are carrying around about 500ml of amniotic fluid which renews itself every 3 hours... Now you know why you are told to drink a lot of fluids.

 

Eat lots of iron rich foods, proteins and keep up the vitamins.  The accelerated growth and development of the nervous system rely on your food intake.
