Seven months pregnant, diagram of belly size and changes
Seven months into pregnancy, the baby has already developed a lot in the mother\’s womb. As the baby grows, the mother\’s body also undergoes various changes, the most obvious of which is the size and shape of the belly. This article will introduce in detail the changes in the belly of pregnant women in seven months from four aspects.
1. Size and shape of belly
When I was seven months pregnant, my belly was already very obvious. Specifically, a pregnant woman\’s belly will be rounder than before, and her umbilical cord will begin to protrude. In addition, as the baby\’s head moves downward, the pregnant woman\’s fetal position will change and her buttocks will become more prominent. During this stage, pregnant women will continue to gain weight, but at a relatively slow rate.
2. Skin changes
During the seventh month of pregnancy, a pregnant woman’s skin will also undergo many changes. As your belly grows, the skin becomes tighter and some wrinkles may appear. In addition, pregnant women\’s nipples will become more sensitive, and some may develop pigmentation or pregnancy spots. In addition, pregnant women\’s breasts will also become fuller, which can gradually prepare the breasts to secrete milk.
3. Uterine changes
At seven months of pregnancy, the size of the fetus in the mother\’s uterus gradually increases and occupies almost most of the space in the uterus, and the uterus continues to grow with the development of the baby. At the same time, the uterus is also preparing for the birth of the baby. The muscles of the uterus practice contractions through the natural process of uterine contractions in preparation for delivery. Due to hormonal changes during pregnancy, the elasticity of the uterine opening gradually relaxes, which is conducive to childbirth.
4. Uterine contractions and fetal movements
At seven months of pregnancy, the baby\’s fetal movements are already obvious, and the pregnant woman may feel the baby rolling in her belly, or a slight kicking sensation. At the same time, as the contractions of the uterus gradually become more frequent, the pregnant woman may experience some discomfort or pain.
Generally speaking, the belly is very obvious at seven months of pregnancy, and the pregnant woman\’s body is also preparing for childbirth. It is important to note that since a pregnant woman\’s body is constantly changing, it is very important to pay attention to safety and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
