Pregnancy 27 weeks - what happens?

The third and final trimester of pregnancy has begun, and now begins a difficult and very responsible period. A woman is morally prepared for the upcoming birth.

It is at this time that many women's clinics invite future mothers to attend courses where lectures on childbirth and childcare are held.

Do not refuse to visit them, because this is very useful information will allow you to get the necessary practical knowledge for such a difficult time as childbirth.

Belly at 27 weeks gestation

Although a woman and it seems that she incredibly rounded and distributed in the sides, the tummy will grow almost to the very birth. Now his girth is about 90-99 centimeters, but maybe more if the woman was originally full.

The height of the standing of the bottom of the uterus is approximately 27-28 cm, i.е. this size is almost the same as the gestation period. If these two parameters of the uterus significantly outstrip the norm at week 27, then most likely it is a pregnancy of twins or a very large fetus.

Weight of a woman at 27 weeks gestation

Passed already most of the way, and because of that the woman has already gained considerable weight. On average, a normal increase is about 7-8 kilograms, although in practice it often happens when there is a lot of weight or a lack of it by this time. This is due to malnutrition in the first case, and as a result of prolonged toxicosis - in the second.

Since every day pregnant women gain from 200 to 250 grams, it is easy to calculate how much, it is necessary to recover yet. To not have problems with excess weight, it must be clearly controlled. Help in this unloading days and fractional meals.

Child at the 27th week of pregnancy

The kid is already fully viable - he has formed all the organs. But it's too early for him to be born, because the systems of a small organism must "mature" to the natural deadline.

The size of the fetus at the 27th week of pregnancy is different for each pregnant woman, because each kid has genes different from the other. But on average, the weight of a child for today is one kilogram, and the growth is about 27 centimeters. As you can see, before the birth of 3 kg, he still needs to recover three times.

Right now, the baby starts actively gaining weight, and therefore the mother needs to eat a variety and is most useful, so that all the nutrients come to the child from food, not from her body.

Fetal movements from the 27th week of pregnancy reduce the intensity, and the woman does not understand what is happening. The kid has grown enough already and he already becomes cramped in the uterus. Therefore, the tremors and somersaults are not so frequent now, but their intensity remains at the same level.
