The baby is comfortable now. If you are a first-time mother, don't rush the baby to come out. Let him stay for a while.

Maybe he is quite happy to see his parents getting anxious. Don't rush him, just let him wait a little longer.

Fetal skills

The baby is in seclusion, waiting for the moment of birth. The baby seems to understand that he is not strong enough, so he is practicing in seclusion. In order to come into this world strong, it will quietly absorb nutrition from its mother and wait for the moment of birth. So, this week mom can hardly feel the baby's activities.

Fetal movement and position

The baby has to work hard to make room for his little butt

The fetus' head is rocking in your pelvic cavity, protected by the pelvic skeleton, so it is safe. This also frees up more space for his little arms, legs and butt to grow.

Pregnant mothers with abnormal fetal position should be hospitalized in advance to wait for delivery

After deciding on the mode of delivery, the pregnant mother should be hospitalized in advance this week to prevent malposition of the fetus during delivery and avoid serious consequences caused by malposition of the fetus.

Babies born now are full-term and should weigh 3200-3400 grams. It is not surprising if their weight is over 3500 grams. Generally speaking, boys are slightly heavier than the average weight of girls. The fetus is still growing, and these fat reserves will help regulate the baby's body temperature after birth.

It will take a few hours after the baby is born for him to establish a normal breathing pattern.
