37 Weeks


Gaining one ounce per day, your baby is growing rapidly. Keep up those exercises, especially your Kegels. Keeping your pelvic floor muscles toned will aid in a quicker recovery from the birth. An elbow, foot or head may protrude from your stomach when baby stretches and squirms about. Soon, as the wall of your uterus and your abdomen stretch thinner and let in more light, your baby will begin to develop daily activity cycles. Even though you are three weeks from your due date, you are now considered full term. In most cases, nothing will be done to stop your labor once it starts, even if it is before your 40th week. If you go into labor at this point your careprovider will not try to stop it.
