27 WEEKS PREGNANT SYMPTOMS

Yes we know, those pregnancy symptoms is such a downer, but alas, they aren | t going away anytime soon. We hope that the tips we | ve offered have helped you cope with them.

Being 27 weeks pregnant, here are some signs and symptom that your body might be experiencing:

Constipation. Due to your pregnancy hormone, progesterone, relaxing your digestive track, your body will take a longer time to digest the food, causing you to develop constipation.

Piles (Hemorrhoids). With the growing baby putting pressure on your rectum with the added strain of constipation, you may develop piles. Do eat lots of high fibre foods and drink lots of water.

Cramping leg muscles. As your uterus grows bigger, it puts tremendous pressure on the leg veins causing leg cramps. Stretch your legs if that happens.

Dizziness. You might feel faint due to the constriction on your blood vessels. The constriction may cause oxygen deprivation to your brain and cause you to feel faint. If you do feel faint at any moment, do sit down immediately.

Blocked nose. Your pregnancy hormones will cause the membranes in your nose to swell up, causing nasal congestion.

Itchy belly. As your belly becomes bigger, the skin around your belly will stretch, causing it to become dry and itchy.



If you are having the problem of piles (Hemorrhoids) , do remember to eat lots of high fibre foods and drink lots of water. This is due to the double whammy of constipation and your growing baby putting pressure on your rectum.


27 WEEKS THE PREGNANT BELLY

By this week you would have a healthy weight gain of between 6.8kg to 13.6kg. You should be sticking to the weight gain recommendations as this will reduce the risk of pregnancy complications and preterm labour.

Your uterus is now about the size of a basketball, and your baby is growing bigger with each passing day.

The kicks are getting stronger, and you might even feel tiny hiccups as tiny rhythmic movements from your baby. Start counting baby kicks next week to make sure the baby is healthy and well.

As your uterus is getting bigger, your stomach is getting squeezed. Because of that, you feel full easily and might even feel nauseous after a large meal.


HOW IS MY BABY 27 WEEKS PREGNANT?

Your baby | s brain is starting to show brain activity, and will continue to develop in complexity.

The little one is sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing his or her eyes and even sucking the fingers.

The lungs, still immature, are still developing, and if the little one were to be born this week, the lungs would function with medical assistance.

As the network of nerves to the baby | s ears mature, your baby would be able to recognise both you and your partner | s voices. So do talk to your baby since he or she would be able to hear you.


WHAT TO DO AT 27 WEEKS PREGNANT
