It is almost time for you to hold your baby in your arms during pregnancy week by week. So, what are the changes in the mother and baby in the 34th week of pregnancy? How big is the baby in the 34th week of pregnancy? What does a 34-week baby look like?
Yeditepe University Hospitals Gynecology and Obstetrics Department Head and IVF Specialist Prof. Dr. Erkut Attar answered these questions about the 34th week of pregnancy.
How Big is a 34-Week Baby?
Your baby weighs a little more than 2.1 kilograms. The head-to-heel length is about 45 centimeters.
Baby Development at 34 Weeks of Pregnancy
Your baby is building up a special kind of fat storage known as brown adipose tissue. This tissue will help keep them warm after birth as newborns do not retain body heat well. The brown adipose tissue stops growing after birth. So, you will need to make sure that you take precautions so that your baby does not sweat too much or get too cold.
Research shows that if you regularly sing a song or lullaby to your baby before it is born, singing a song or lullaby to your baby after birth when it is restless will calm it more easily.
Changes in the Mother at 34 Weeks of Pregnancy
As your baby is pressing on your abdomen, you may experience acid reflux and indigestion again. Eating small but frequent meals will help you in this situation. Try not to lie down immediately after eating. Avoiding fatty or spicy foods, chocolate, acidic drinks, and coffee will reduce your chances of experiencing these symptoms. If you experience these complaints more at night, raising your pillow and going to bed will help you.
What Causes Acid Reflux During Pregnancy?
Acid reflux during pregnancy is among the common symptoms of pregnancy. Mostly, this reflux can become more severe in the last weeks of pregnancy. Acid reflux during pregnancy is caused by the change in female hormones and the pressure on the stomach with the growth of the uterus. With the effect of hormones, relaxation occurs in the area where the esophagus intersects. For this reason, stomach acid leaks and escapes into the esophagus.
