Your Body at Week 30

Well ladies, you are defiantly on the home stretch now with only 10 weeks to go. You are probably experiencing a lot of emotions at this current time. With some ladies reporting of very vivid dreams about labour, their baby, and life after they arrive.

It is all completely normal to be experiencing this emotional response as things suddenly become very real. That just in 10 weeks’ time you will have your beautiful baby in your arms. 

Your Baby At Week 30 

At this stage in your pregnancy, your baby should be very active in there. They may have even changed position in your womb getting ready for birth. Although some babies may take a bit longer and more convincing to turn head down. There is still plenty of time left for your little one to get into the position for birth.

  1. Talk to your doctor or midwife about premature labour warning signs if you are concerned.  
  2. Keep intaking a good amount of calcium as this will help your baby develop strong and healthy bones.
  3. Choosing colours for the baby’s nursey is something fun to discuss with your partner this week.
  4. It’s now time to start thinking about what to pack in your hospital bag, making a list of all the things you may need can be a good start.
