This week

Third trimester: time to grow strong.

  • Filling out
    Fat is building under the skin, smoothing it out and preparing to keep your baby warm after birth.
  • Hiccups!
    Those small rhythmic jumps you may feel are hiccups, completely normal and very common now.
  • Lashes and blinks
    Eyelashes are in place and the eyes blink and focus on the soft light that filters through.

Written against the NHS week-by-week guide. A picture, not a measurement: every baby grows at their own pace.
