What months does the third trimester refer to?

Many mothers often hear about the late pregnancy, but they don’t know which months the late pregnancy is. In fact, pregnancy is divided into early pregnancy, mid pregnancy and late pregnancy, and each stage is different. Today I will help you identify which months the late pregnancy is, and let you know what preparations you need to make in the late pregnancy, how to safely get through the late pregnancy and welcome the arrival of the baby.

What months does the late pregnancy refer to?

The late pregnancy refers to the period from the 28th week of pregnancy until the end of delivery (up to 40 weeks), which includes the three months of pregnancy: August, September and October.

Common problems in late pregnancy

(30-32 weeks) - After entering the late pregnancy, the intensity of fetal movement will gradually weaken. Experts say: In the late pregnancy, pregnant women should pay attention to the number of fetal movements, not the height of the fetal movement. Because in the late stage, after the baby grows bigger, the body is only bent, and the uterus has no extra space for the fetus to move in the mother's belly. Therefore, it is normal for the fetal movement to become weaker. Under normal circumstances, the weighted average of the three fetal movements in the morning, afternoon and evening is 5-10 times. It is abnormal if it is less than 5 times.

Pregnant women should feel the baby's movements in a quiet environment and relax. Of course, the late pregnancy is the time when the fetus is most prone to problems. If conditions permit, fetal monitoring can be done regularly once a week after 36 weeks of pregnancy. In the last three months of pregnancy, the fetus grows fast and needs adequate nutrition, so the dietary pattern of pregnant women at this time is:

1. No need to be picky about food or restrict your diet;

2. Don’t eat too much sweet, sour, bitter, spicy or salty food. Eat small meals frequently and choose foods that are easy to digest.

3. Eat more fruits and vegetables, and don’t forget fish, meat, and eggs.

The above is a brief introduction to which months the late pregnancy refers to. I believe everyone has already understood it. I hope that all mothers can safely pass through the late pregnancy and welcome the arrival of their babies. After nine months of hardship, I am finally going to see my baby. Many mothers do not pay attention to their health problems in the late pregnancy, and eat too much sour food when they give birth, just like in the early and mid-pregnancy.
