| What
is going on with you during week 26? |
| |
You will find yourself growing nearly half
an inch (1cm) each week from now on. With
a healthy diet, your weight gain is between
16 and 22 pounds (7.2-9.9kg). Now that you
bigger, back pain, leg cramps and headaches
are your common buddies. Two- thirds of
the pregnancy is behind you; you are approaching
the end of the middle trimester. You belly
button may pop now if it hasn't already.
After delivery and a shrunk uterus, your
belly button will revert to its usual position
but you may find it slightly stretched and
less taut than before. |

is going on with your head during week 26? |

You may think the worse is over since the
first trimester is over but think again.
The second trimester can continue to be
a trying period for some, depending on what
is going on with you in your life. You could
be feeling joyous one moment and weepy the
next. While mood swings are the mainstay
of pregnancy, there is reason to worry if
your mood swings are extreme or uncontrollable
and if they interfere with your pregnancy
journey. |
