Im about to start my 8th month and want to know what all changes to expect now, with baby and with my body. Feeling heavy and tired most days. Anyone remember what this month was like for them?
Baby is growing fast, you feel heavier and more pressure down there. Keep your bag ready by now and dont miss appointments. Watch for any swelling or headache and tell your gynac.
In my 8th month my MIL made sure I rested and ate well, lots of fuss but sweet. Baby was just growing fast and I felt heavier each week. Family care plus regular doctor visits got me through it nicely.
This is the home stretch beta, baby is just fattening up and getting ready. Rest more, eat well and keep your doctor visits regular. You are doing beautifully.
Around 8th month baby gains a lot of weight and the lungs are maturing more. My doctor said this is when checkups become more frequent to watch position and growth. They also start talking about delivery planning.
Honestly month 8 is just constant peeing, no comfortable sleep position and a tiny human doing somersaults inside. I waddle everywhere now. But baby is getting chubby so its all worth it.
