Conclusion

Welcome to Week 28 of pregnancy! Your baby is growing steadily, gaining weight, and even starting to open their eyes. Their immune system is developing, preparing them for life outside the womb. You may notice colostrum leaking from your breasts as your body prepares for breastfeeding. Sleep may become challenging due to hormones or nerves, and heartburn or constipation may persist. Prioritise comfort with supportive bras, prenatal massages, and a maternity belt. Watch this video for expert advice on managing symptoms and preparing for the final stretch. Need support?
