What You should expect in Week 33
Happy 8th month of pregnancy!
You’re so so close to holding your little one for the first time!
While your baby will continue to gain weight, it’s around this time that your baby has grown to the length he or she will be when you meet them for the first time, What to Expect reveals!
And although he or she is still practicing breathing, did you know that they drink about a pint of amniotic fluid a day? This is a good thing!
Slowly but surely, your little one is doing all they can to prepare for the outside world.
And now, he or she has their own immune system!
Between leg cramps, insomnia, heartburn, peeing constantly, swelling, and growing baby bump, you’re likely exhausted so take this time to nest and rest!
