- You may begin getting stretch marks, but they will fade after the baby is born.
- You may be able to determine the babies sleep/wake cycles, by his activity or lack of it.
- You should call your GP/Gynae if you have any of the following
- Contractions or cramps, more than 5 in one hour
- Bright red blood discharge from your vagina
- Swelling of the face or hands
- Pain during urination
- Sharp or prolonged pain in your stomach
- Accute vomitting
- A gush of clear watery fluid from your vagina
- Intensive pelvic pressure
- You may gain between a half and one pound per week from now on. This may seem like a lot of weight considering the average birth weight of a full term baby, but not all of the weight goes on the baby - the placenta, increased volume of blood, muscles, breasts and amniotic fluid all increase your overall weight.
