35th week of pregnancy: we begin preparation for childbirth

The 35th week of pregnancy will mark the most difficult period for the child to be born. The matter is that now the uterus rises to the maximum height, presses on a breast bone and digestive system. In addition, the weight of the body increases significantly , which impedes any movement. Very soon the uterus will descend into the pelvis, which will greatly improve your health.

35 week of pregnancy: how is your baby developing? At this stage, all the major organs and systems of the body are already fully formed. The fetus at 35 weeks of gestation is ready for life by the body of the mother.

The improvement of the kidneys, digestive and respiratory systems is coming to an end. The weight of the child is 2 kilograms, and the length of the body from the sacrum to the top is 45 centimeters. It should be noted that these indicators are very relative and individual for each baby.

In the child's body, the process of fat deposition is actively underway. As a result, the skin becomes soft and pink, the body lines are rounded. This is especially noticeable on the shoulders of the fetus. In addition, the amount of mucus that covers the skin of the baby is significantly reduced, the cannons are gradually disappearing, although after birth it may remain on some parts of the skin.

35 week of pregnancy: changes in the mother's body. Week 35 is a very difficult period for a pregnant woman. The fact is that the fetus is growing all the time, increasing by about 200 grams every week. The uterus rises strongly, presses against the diaphragm and sternum, interferes with the normal functioning of the digestive tract. All this causes difficulties with breathing, feeding and movement. A woman is very difficult to bend, it is hard to sit, stand and lie.  

If you have problems with eating, then try to eat in small portions, but often. Most women during this period complain of constant heartburn. In this case, you need to limit the amount of fried, salty and sour dishes. Ask your doctor to prescribe a drug that will relieve burning sensation.

Most expectant mothers have trouble sleeping. First, the uterus and the fetus press on the bladder. Secondly, it is very difficult for a woman to find a comfortable position for sleeping. Try not to drink a lot of fluids, especially in the evening - this will ease the situation a bit.

During this period, the stomach is already too large and prevents bending. Trying to put on socks or wear shoes, a woman faces a problem. Therefore, buy your shoes without laces and locks, so that there is no need to bend over again.

At this stage, you must give up making love, since stimulation of erogenous zones causes a reduction in the uterus, which in turn can lead to premature birth. A child born on the 35th week is quite viable, but it's best to wait until the birth begins naturally.

Starting at week 24, a pregnant woman can feel a false fight. Unlike the present, they are not systematic and are not accompanied by painful sensations. 35 weeks of pregnancy is not an exception. The wiggling of the fetus is also a very important indicator, which the expectant mother must follow. If within a day you have never felt movements, it is advisable to consult a doctor.
