Week 25

Check out what how your baby is developing this week: -

• The foetus is about due to start outing pressure on your ribs and also on your digestive system.
• You could get pains down the sides of your tummy from now on as the uterus stretches.
• The foetus looks pretty much like a baby at birth.
• It will definitely have developed its own sleeping patterns: usually awake when you’re asleep and vice versa as your movements soothe it to sleep. (This is why babies can be rocked to sleep once they come out.)
• The foetus may be startled by loud music and start kicking you when it hears a certain tune. Or maybe it’s dancing. This is a good time to play it music, talk to it and see if you get a reaction.
