The baby's bones continue to increase in length and width. This thing doesn't have to be done in the account of your skeleton and teeth. You should have milk and cheese daily, in order to ensure the necessary calcium level for your child, so do not neglect:
- your weight: continue to measure it regularly
- the urine checkup
You are only a few weeks away from your birth term. You will soon start your maternity leave.
The maternity leave is not a luxury. You feel a lot heavier because of your increased uterus, very tired because of the blood circulation and breathe, due to the fact that your organs are more crowded then usually. Take advantage of this leave to rest a lot and continue to prepare yourself financially and mentally for your baby's birth.

Soon, you will have to say goodbye to your work colleagues, because you will not see them for quite a while. When they will see you again in a couple of months, you will be a different person, hard to recognize: from a very tired, fat-looking person, you will become a young mother, happy and feeling in shape.
During the maternity leave:

During the maternity leave:
- you should rest as much as possible; try to avoid any activity that can lead to a premature birth; if nature decided that the gestation period is 9 months long, it means that 9 months are enough for the baby's organs to become completely mature;
- continue with the relaxation and breath exercises, prepare the baby's room; it is better for him to sleep in a different room than yours; a baby should have his own room; if you are concerned at the thought that maybe you will not hear him, you may place his bed closer to your room, and leave the door open.
- think in advance about the baby's place to sleep and eat; his coming into your home is not an easy thing to happen, so it is best to organize in advance as efficiently as you can
- organize the life of your other children during the period that you will spend in the hospital
- think about how you can be helped in the days that follow after coming home from the maternity; if you do not have a mother or other relatives who can help, you should look for other solutions, because immediately after coming home you will have to rest and continue with the gymnastics and exercise; for this you will need to have somebody to help you taking care of your baby from time to time.
