Week 35: Frequent visits
i have gained about 8.5kgs...since i conceived
I'm beginning to feel cramped and heavier everyday.Its also getting harder for me to breathe and eat...I get breathless just talking at times lol.
Now that our baby is head down and (almost) engaged in preparation for childbirth, his head is pressing squarely on my bladder. The result? As before — to the bathroom i go. And i go again and again.
Did you know that the measurement in centimeters from the top of your pubic bone to the top of your uterus is roughly equivalent to the number of weeks of pregnancy?
Something else that'll remind you just how far along you are in your pregnancy: the frequent urination. Yep, it's first trimester deja vu all over again, but this time, instead of pregnancy hormones to blame, it's the position of our baby's head that's causing it and as if that's not enough, I'am also experiencing a lack of bladder control so when i say i gotta go...i really mean i gotta go!!!
