Im entering my 8th month soon and my mom keeps telling me to be extra careful now, dont travel much, take rest. Why is this month called so critical actually? Bit nervous to be honest.
For me this month my BP started acting up so doc told me to come more often. If u feel swelling, headache or less baby movement pls call gynac immediately, dont wait. Better to be safe in last weeks.
Eighth month baby is growing fast and putting more pressure, so you feel everything more. Just keep your checkups regular and watch your BP, thats the main thing. Dont skip any scan in this period.
Reading this is making me a little nervous na, im only in 2nd trimester. Did everyone feel this month is so scary or is it just talk? Asking so i can mentally prepare.
My amma always said 8th month rest more, dont lift heavy things. I followed simple advice but mainly trusted my gynac for everything. Nothing to panic, just take care calmly.
