Standard values for fetal development at 29 weeks
As the gestational age increases, the development of the fetus becomes more and more obvious. The 29th week of pregnancy is one of the critical periods for fetal development and growth. The following will focus on the standard values and precautions for fetal development at 29 weeks.
Weight and length
At 29 weeks, the average fetal weight is about 1.3 kilograms and the length is about 38 centimeters. At this time, the fetal head circumference is approximately 28 cm and the abdominal circumference is approximately 28 cm. At this time, the fetus is fully developed and its teeth and nails will begin to grow. In addition, the fetus\’s facial features have become more obvious, the eyeballs have begun to move, and the fetus can distinguish some bright and dim lights.
Organ development
At this time, the various organs of the fetus have been fully developed, such as the lungs, liver, stomach, kidneys, etc., and have basic functions. The development of the brain and nervous system is also constantly improving, and it can control some simple actions and reactions. At the same time, the fetal heart and circulatory system gradually mature and are able to beat their own hearts and function normally.
Motor development
The fetal motor development is also relatively complete at 29 weeks. The fetus can turn its body, stretch its limbs, kick the mother\’s uterus, etc. At this time, some fetuses will also suck their fingers and enjoy the sounds around them. The development of these movements is not only physical training, but also contributes to the development of the nervous system and brain.
Notes for mothers
The 29th week of pregnancy is an important period for pregnant women. At this time, mothers should pay attention to getting more rest to avoid overexertion. If you find that the fetal movements are irregular or the number of fetal movements is reduced, you need to seek medical treatment in time. At the same time, nutrition during pregnancy also requires attention, and attention should be paid to the intake of sufficient calcium, iron, protein, vitamins and other nutrients to ensure the normal growth and development of the fetus.
Summary
In general, the fetus at 29 weeks has developed very completely, and all organs and systems have basically mature functions. Mothers need to pay attention to their own body and fetal movements, monitor fetal movements, maintain balanced nutrition and get adequate rest to ensure a smooth pregnancy. At the same time, the baby\’s development also needs to pay attention to the development of movements to help the maturation of its motor nervous system and brain.
