How is the fetus developing at 31 weeks of pregnancy?

The baby is the mother’s angel. Even though the mother has a hard time during pregnancy, she is more happy. Similarly, when a mother is pregnant, she should be very curious about her baby's appearance and development. Now that technology is advanced, we can see what the baby looks like through B-ultrasound. One month or two months later, he takes shape and grows little by little in his mother's belly, and slowly becomes a complete life. Today, let's take a look at the baby's development at 31 weeks.

31 weeks: At this time, the fetus' lungs and digestive system have basically developed, height growth slows down and weight increases rapidly. This week, the fetus' eyes open and close. He can probably see the scene in the womb, distinguish between light and dark, and even track the light source. As the fetus grows, the space for movement in the uterus becomes smaller and smaller, and fetal movements also decrease. At this time, you will find breathing becoming more and more difficult and you will be unable to catch your breath. The fundus of the uterus has risen to the diaphragm, and I always feel uncomfortable in my stomach after eating, which also affects my appetite. It is best to eat small meals frequently at this time to relieve stomach discomfort. Although there is a lot of discomfort, don't worry, the situation will soon ease.

Developmental focus: This week your baby's growth rate is not as fast as before, and he is still improving in some areas, but his weight will still increase. The development of his little brain has entered the final stage. Prenatal education is still very important, dear. Talk to your baby more to promote brain development.

Fetal skills: The baby’s face at 31 weeks of pregnancy is flattened by the uterus or placenta next to it! At this time, he can recognize colors. His eyes will open and close from time to time, and he will slowly look at his castle.

Fetal movement and position: The fetus moves at least 20 times in 12 hours, and the baby is fine. As the fetus grows, fetal movements gradually decrease. As long as the fetal movements are regular and there are no less than 20 movements in 12 hours, it means that he is doing well. As the fetus grows larger, his space for movement decreases and his hands and feet can no longer stretch freely.

Adjust the fetal position by turning the fetus to the side-lying position:

If a pregnant mother finds that the fetus is in an abnormal position, there is no need to worry. The fetal position can still be adjusted through some simple methods. For example, the side-lying position method: when the pregnant mother sleeps at night, she lies on the side of the fetus's body and uses gravity to make the fetal head enter the pelvis.

It seems that being a mother is really hard. From the beginning, it is just a fertilized egg, and after about eight months, it becomes a person like us. This is also magical. Therefore, during pregnancy, mothers should pay attention to changes in their bodies and take good care of themselves.
