        • He/She’s gaining about 0.22 kilograms a week and may grow a full inch (2.5 cm) in length this week alone.
        • Her pupils can adjust to darkness and light, just like yours.
        • Your amniotic fluid has reached its maximum level. There’s no more room. With less fluid to cushion your baby’s kicks, they might feel a bit uncomfortable.

        If you are having difficulty finding a comfortable sleeping position, try this one:

        Lie on your left side with your legs and knees bent. This position helps take the pressure off the primary veins in your legs and your lower back. If you need to adjust your position overnight, try the same technique on your right side.

        Breastfeeding Disclaimer 

        Breastfeeding is the best source of infant nutrition. Good maternal nutrition is important for the preparation and maintenance of breastfeeding. When thinking of using infant formula, a mother should be aware of

        1. the financial and social implications of formula feeding,
        2. the difficulty of reversing the decision not to breastfeed and
        3. the care that must be taken to prevent partial formula feeding from interfering with lactation.

        In addition, proper preparation of powder or concentrated liquid infant formula requires the use of boiled water for the purposes of mixing formula and cleaning implements and the manufacturer’s mixing instructions must always be followed. Improper mixing or preparation may make a baby sick. A healthcare professional should always be consulted before initiating formula feeding.
