I believe every pregnant woman has great expectations for the baby in her womb. Everyone imagines what their baby will look like, thinking that the baby can be born quickly, but also worries that their baby may not have absorbed more nutrients and wants to know how tall the fetus is in the late stages of pregnancy?
At 8 months of pregnancy, which is considered the late stage of pregnancy, the abdominal circumference of the pregnant woman is already very obvious, and as the fetus changes rapidly in the abdomen, the weight will increase from 1 kilogram to about 2 kilograms. Now the baby looks chubby and no longer wrinkled as before. At 29 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus is 39 centimeters tall from head to toe, and then 26-28 centimeters tall when sitting. Parents can imagine who their baby looks more like.
After 8 months of pregnancy, the fetus is approaching maturity, in other words, even if the baby is born now, they can still survive. The baby's small body has developed small muscles, and their legs can kick and jump, making fetal movements much stronger than before. This is when the auditory system is fully developed. In the later stages of pregnancy, fetal brainwaves will appear. At this point, the fetus's consciousness begins to sprout. The fetal head will slowly move downwards to the uterus in preparation for delivery.
The late stage of pregnancy is very important for both the pregnant woman and the fetus. During this period, in addition to increasing nutrition, pregnant women should also pay attention to exercising more, which is also very beneficial for childbirth.
