Pregnancy Week 34

October 24, 2008

Pregnancy is that phase in a woman’s life which is the most memorable and joyous phase in her life. It is described as a process in which the woman carries another life in her womb. It is the uterus that bears the foetus or the offspring and the baby develops inside the mother’s womb as days go by.

It is believed that generally the birth of the baby occurs after 38 weeks from fertilisation. It can also be said that the baby is born 40 weeks after the woman has had her last menstrual period.

There are lot of medical signs that indicate the pregnancy of a woman. Some of the signs include missing of periods, presence of the hormone HCG in the blood and urine, increased basal body temperature, darkening of the cervix and the vagina etc.

The pregnancy period is generally divided into 3 trimesters namely, first trimester, second trimester and the third trimester. There are lots of hormonal changes that takes place in the woman’s body during the phase of pregnancy.

By 34 weeks the baby in the womb of the mother is almost 5 pounds and about 18-20 inches long. It is at this stage that the baby continues to grow and keeps filling the tummy of the mother.

By 34 weeks of pregnancy the uterus of a woman is just 5.6 inches from the top of her navel. Every woman carries her baby in a different manner. For few women the tummy may be wider, for few it may be lower or it may be a high tummy in some cases. These differences are due to many factors and need not be worried for.

A woman generally becomes restless and starts feeling more uncomfortable because of many reasons by 34 weeks of pregnancy. Some of the reasons are eagerness to meet the baby, tension about having a normal delivery where in the baby and the mother must be safe, increasing weight that makes her tired more often etc.

Women must believe that pregnancy is a boon given by god and He always takes care of what has to be happened. Enjoy your motherhood.
