Pregnancy Week 26 tips

Week 26 is crucial for both the mother and the baby. They could do best with tones and tones of care showered on them.

Mother's Changes :

Your uterus is two and half inches above the protruding belly button. If you are getting sudden cramps in the lower stomach, that is only very natural. The cramps are called "Braxton Hicks Contractions". These are like menstrual ramps, usually painless and happen throughout the day irregularly. Through these contractions the body is preparing itself for the big job of going into labour.

The uterus at this stage continues to grow at a rate of 1cm per week during pregnancy. Many women have a weight gain of 15-25 pounds at this time and the weight gain would depend on the retention of fluids. The comfort level of your body starts lessening from week 26. These are the few symptoms of this week itching, hemorrhoids, round ligament pains, occasional headaches, frequent urination, stretch marks, and indigestion or heart burn. You can get help with the stretch marks if you use cocoa butter.
