29W 二十九週的紀錄

8/5 In today's morning I felt the baby's foot moving, I think I could almost grab his foot, how amazing!

8/18 Because the baby is getting heavy so quickly, my tail bone hurt very very bad, and walking or standing will make it worse, because the baby will drop lower and make it worse. Sometime I can't even stand up from bed and walk to the bathroom, I almost cry when it hurts so much. Walking on the stairs are hard, too.

Dear Hung-Lan,

Welcome to week 29 — the start of your third trimester! By now, you're probably feeling some late-pregnancy pains. Fend off the backaches, fatigue, and leg cramps with a boost of vitamin C. Carrots, sweet potatoes, eggs, and leafy greens all are great options to get your daily dose. It does a body good!

Your Baby's Development This Week
This week your baby might best be described as long and strong!
• Your baby probably weighs almost 3 pounds and is about 10 inches long, about the length of a large cucumber.
• Your baby's activity probably keeps getting more frequentand stronger during the 29th week of pregnancy.
• During the next 11 weeks, she might more than double or almost triple her current weight.

Many women begin to slow their activity in the 29th week of pregnancy and beyond, which is normal.

• You are carrying more weight, which can make any physical activity more exhausting than normal.
• Respond to your body's needs. It's OK to modify your routine. Just try to keep moving every day.
