Week 27 of Pregnancy: Baby's Breathing & Mama’s Growing Belly!

WEEK- 27  of Pregnancy

Intro:
Hi there, Supermom! I’m Dr. Heal, and welcome to Week 27 of your pregnancy. Let’s take a look at the exciting changes you can expect in this twenty-seventh week of pregnancy!

Key Information:
With lungs ready to breathe, your baby can now inhale and exhale in your womb. They’re also starting to show brain activity as new neurons start forming and the nervous system continues to mature. Your little one continues to gain weight and their skin is a lot more smoother now. 
At week 27, leg cramps and backaches become common as your baby grows bigger. You may also experience constipation, and hemorrhoids, and might have to pee a lot more often. Your skin, hair, and nails start to grow thicker due to all the excessive blood flow, along with the pregnancy skin glow continuing!

Conclusion:
Make sure you’re performing gentle stretching exercises and eating healthy. You could also ask your doctor to prescribe you some fiber supplements to ease the constipation. And if you have questions or need advice, Apollo doctors and our supportive community are always here for you. You’ve got this supermom!
