This week for the Nerdy Weekly Baby series!
Gestational Size of the Baby at 30 Weeks
At 30 weeks pregnant, your baby is about the weight of a Coconut, measuring approximately 15.7 inches (40 cm) long and weighing around 2.9 pounds (1.3 kg). By this stage, your baby has grown a lot and is starting to fill up more of the available space in your uterus.
In terms of development, your baby’s bones are continuing to harden, and their lungs are developing further to prepare for breathing air outside of the womb. Your baby’s brain is also growing and developing rapidly, and their hearing and vision are becoming more advanced.
How You’re Feeling at 30 Weeks Pregnant
At this point in your pregnancy, you may be experiencing some physical discomfort as your baby continues to grow and put pressure on your organs. You may also be feeling more tired and have difficulty sleeping as your baby’s movements can be more noticeable and frequent.
At this stage, you may want to start thinking about preparing for your baby’s arrival, including creating a birth plan, setting up a nursery, and stocking up on necessary baby items such as diapers and clothing. You may also want to start attending childbirth classes and considering your options for pain management during labor.
As your due date approaches, it’s important to continue monitoring your baby’s movements and speaking with your healthcare provider about any concerns you may have. Remember to take care of yourself and prioritize rest and relaxation during this exciting and challenging time.
