Your baby is the size of a trifle!
Fun Fact!

Dos and Don'ts

- Don't forget to stock up on baby supplies
What should you expect in Week 37?
- Did you know week 37 used to be considered full-term? It’s true!
- Now, it is considered early term because your baby has so much more growing to do!
- Right now, they are really perfecting their swallowing and sucking capabilities while their lungs, brain, and liver continue to develop as well!
- And your body is likely feeling all sorts of things as it prepares to give birth.
- From an increase in Braxton Hicks contractions to your pelvis expanding, self-care should be at the forefront of your mind right now, Mama!
- “While it’s certainly not possible for everyone, I do like to encourage patients to try and take some time off from work—even if it’s just a couple of half days, even if you’re feeling fine—at the end of pregnancy. This is really your last chance to grab some time for yourself before your baby changes your life,” Allison Hill, MD, OB/GYN told Very Well Family.
- Oh, have you packed your hospital bag, put the car seat in the car, and jotted down your last minute questions for your doctor yet?
