Being pregnant is one of the most joyful periods of the life of any woman, and to make sure that your experience is a beautiful one, you should gather the most information possible.

The 7 months pregnancy and the changes that happen

When you are 27 weeks pregnant you can expect the little one to be quite wrinkled, because he or she is floating in water. Even more, the little one will stay like that a few weeks after birth, until he or she fills out and will have the shape of a baby as we know it.

At this moment the little one looks just like he or she will look like after getting born. This is also an important landmark, because the baby gains weight, having 2 pounds.

For the mother this is the moment when she gains the most weight that is necessary for being healthy during her pregnancy. This weight is distributed evenly throughout different parts of the body.

The eyelashes of the little one get developed when the mother is 28 weeks pregnant. In case we are talking about a baby boy, this is the time when his testes start to descend.

For the mother this is considered to be the third ...
... trimester and from now on she should see her health care provider every two weeks. Also this is the time to discuss the way you would like to deliver.

The second part of 7 months pregnancy

When the mother is 29 weeks pregnant the little one is seriously preparing for getting born. By this time he or she is pretty much able to regulate the body temperature. Also his or her body is able to produce red blood cells. The amount of urine gets increased. The movements that the little one makes also change, because he or she is making smaller movements due to the space limitation.

The interesting thing about being 30 weeks pregnant is that the baby starts being aware of the surrounding areas. Now the mother can know his or her sleeping cycle. In the majority of the cases the baby is awake when the mother wants to sleep and vice versa.
In this period the mothers can feel a change in their center of gravity.

When being 31 weeks pregnant there is quite some change in the life of the baby: the irises are able to dilute and contract according to the amount of light. At this moment the skin of the baby becomes pink.
