Pregnancy Week 32

Week 32.

The baby’s eyes are now able to focus on things that are large and close by. The baby is also gaining mass a lot more quickly now as he prepares for surviving outside the womb. The normal growth rate is about half a pound every week. The nails on toes and fingers are also fully grown now and there is proper hair on the head as well.

Mom, your body is starting to feel slightly more frequent contractions called Braxton Hicks. Your nipples will grow darker and the usual symptoms will include heartburn, vaginal discharge, and for some moms leaking breasts. You will feel pressure on your pelvic area as the muscles relax, you experience back pain and sleeping is difficult.
