At this stage of pregnancy, you're usually just looking forward to giving birth. It must be said that your belly has never been so big! You continue to have pain in your back and legs, you get tired with the slightest effort, you have to pee all the time (because your baby is pressing on the bladder) and you often have trouble sleeping because your belly is bothering you . Take advantage of your maternity leave to rest as much as possible, because after the baby is born, you won't really be able to do so. You may also feel contractions:pay special attention to this. If they are increasingly close together, long and painful, it may be a sign of an imminent delivery. In this case, take the direction of the maternity ward.
In this ninth month of pregnancy, your baby is ready to go out:he is now almost 3 kg, his organs are well formed and he is able to breathe on his own. The vernix that covered his skin falls off and he displays a pretty newborn skin. If he were born now, he would no longer be considered premature.
Everything should now be ready for the baby's birth:maternity suitcase, room, organization for the departure to the maternity ward. All you have to do is wait... Watch carefully for the little signs that can announce the birth:loss of the mucous plug, loss of water, contractions... If the term is exceeded and nothing happens, know that you will have to go to the maternity ward every other day or every day to check on your baby's good health. If your baby still hasn't decided to come out after a few days, an induction will be programmed.
