For pregnant women who are about to give birth, the fetus in their belly is very important. As the baby in the womb grows day by day, pregnant women also hope that the baby can be born faster. At the same time, pay attention to your own physical condition to avoid affecting the normal development of the fetus in your abdomen. So, does the fetus grow faster after 37 weeks?
When a pregnant woman is around 37 weeks pregnant, it is already in the late stage of pregnancy, and the fetus has basically taken shape at this time, with rapid weight gain. At this time, the length of the fetus is about 46cm, the weight is around 3000 grams, and the fetus's lungs and other respiratory organs have basically matured. The fat in the body will also increase to about 8%. Most fetuses already have hair that is 1 to 3cm long.
Pregnant women should pay attention to their diet and supplement their nutrition in daily life, because the growth rate of the fetus will be relatively fast this week, and it is necessary to ensure the supply of nutrients. In addition, at 37 weeks of pregnancy, expectant parents should pay attention to the following points:
1. Prepare the delivery kit, as pregnant women may have the possibility of giving birth at any time starting from this week, so everything needed for delivery should be fully prepared.
2. We need to have another prenatal examination to observe if the fetal head has entered the pelvis. If the fetal head has not yet entered the uterus, the possibility of it entering the uterus in the future is relatively small. It is recommended to choose cesarean section during delivery.
3. Starting from 37 weeks, pregnant women can receive breast care to keep the milk ducts and glands unobstructed, mainly for the convenience of fetal sucking in the future.
