PREGNANCY WEEK 20

 

(COUNTING FROM THE FIRST DAY OF L.M.P)

AROUND 18 WEEKS AFTER CONCEPTION:

 

What are the changes in growth and development of your fetus?

 

If your baby is female, her uterus starts to develop now. The baby’s scalp hair starts to grow just as like a new born the fetus has the similar sleep-awake pattern.

 

What changes are expected in you, mom?

 

Your uterus is at the navel now. The cutaneous changes also include the formation of the linea nigra in the midline between the navel and the pubic hair—that’s the result of the melanin secretion it will disappear after the delivery of the baby.

 

The fetal movements are getting stronger, you feel. The fetal age can also be verified by the ultrasound. So far, you have reached half a way, Mom---but you need to go through next 20weeks, too.

 

What’s your role dad---Dad’s support?

 

If you are aware, you may notice the fear and doubt regarding the child birth that your wife has. Think of the child birth classes for the Mom and accompany her. It ‘d fun learning for her.
