Pregnancy

Week 27

This first week of the third trimester, your baby looks similar to what he or she will look like at birth - just smaller and thinner.

Week 28

Your health care provider may tell you whether your baby is headfirst or feet- or bottom-first (called breech position). Don't worry if your baby is in the breech position right now — most babies will switch positions on their own.

Week 29

Your active baby's first few flutters of movement have given way to hard jabs and kicks that may take your breath away.

Week 3

During this week, the rapidly dividing fertilized egg will implant itself in the uterus, at the site that eventually will become the placenta.

Week 30

Your baby continues to gain weight and layers of fat that will provide warmth after birth.

Week 31

By now, the milk glands in your breasts may have started to make colostrum, the milk that will feed the baby in the first few days if you decide to breastfeed.

Week 32

At this stage in the pregnancy, your baby's hair is developing, in the form of eyelashes, eyebrows, and on your baby's head.

Week 33

Like a newborn, your baby sleeps much of the time and even has REM sleep, the stage when our most vivid dreams happen.

Week 34

Your baby is probably in position for delivery — your health care provider can tell you if your baby is positioned head- or bottom-first.

Week 35

Because of increasing size, your baby is now cramped and restricted inside the uterus. Fetal movements may decrease, but feel stronger and more forceful.
