Your Developments
- Pelvic pain may become more apparent as baby gets heavier adding pressure to your joints as you walk and move around.
Pregnancy To Do’s
- Premature labor can be brought on by gum infections. Make sure you brush your teeth twice a day. Flossing is also a great option to protect your teeth and gums during the last weeks of pregnancy.
Can the baby come in this week? Because my wife is in labour at 36 weeks. The water has been dripping since morning but she doesn’t feel the urge to push – no pain in the vagina except waist pains.
