Your baby says

There seems to be a getting-ready feeling in the air, but I can't quite name it.

What may be happening this week

Overall growth and maturing may continue during this period. Details can differ between pregnancies.

A note for you

For the mother, thoughts of getting ready may be a little more present this week. For the father or partner, a small contribution is a simple way to share this week.

Sizes are averages and every baby grows at their own pace. This page is general information, not medical advice.
