you are 25weeks 4days today.
You should now weighs nearly 1.5 pounds/ 660 grams and is approximately 13.5 inches/ 35 centimeters long from crown to heel. You make breathing movements but has no air in your lungs yet. At 26 weeks, fetal brain scans show response to touch. If we shine a light on mummy's abdomen, you will turn your head, which according to researchers, means your optic nerve is working. At every prenatlal visit, doctor will take mummy's blood pressure and do tests on a sample of the urine. In this way, pregnancy-related conditions such as pre-eclampsia and diabetes can be detected and treated. Mummy's fingers, wrists and hands may be feeling achy and numb. The carpal tunnel in the wrist is swollen, as are many other tissues in the body. Nerves that run through the tunnel end up pinched, creating pressure that manifests itself as shooting or burning pain. Wearing a brace may help; so will taking vitamin B6.
Mummy is starting to feel fatigue creeping in nowsaday as being pregnant puts a strain on the entire body and also breathlessness when climbing up stairs or when walking at fast pace...
Breathlessness is common in the later stages of pregnancy, as your baby pushes up underneath your diaphragm and compresses your lungs. This type of breathlessness is normal and it won't affect your health or that of your baby. The symptom is made worse by the fact that you will have put on quite a lot of weight since becoming pregnant.
but all these discomforts are well worth, as you are priceless... :)
love you lots baby...
