Review your own pattern with your care team rather than using one number as a target.

You do not need to eat twice as much simply because you are pregnant.

It is often uncomfortable rather than painful and usually does not mean labor.

You may notice weight gain, experience practice contractions, and see changes in your breasts. These factors play important roles in preparing you for labor and nursing. ### Pregnancy Weight Gain By this point in your pregnancy, weight gain is expected and natural. Most women gain about 1 to 2 pounds per week during the third trimester. This is important for supporting your growing baby. The average total weight gain during pregnancy is around 25 to 35 pounds. However, every woman's body is different. Factors like your pre-pregnancy weight and overall health can affect your gain. To manage weight gain, focus on balanced meals. Include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Stay active with light exercises, like walking or prenatal yoga, as advised by your doctor. ### Braxton Hicks Braxton Hicks contractions are common at this stage. These are often called "practice contractions" as your body prepares for labor. They can start feeling more noticeable and may last from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. You might feel tightness in your abdomen. Some women describe it as a squeezing sensation. These contractions usually don’t signal labor, but they can be uncomfortable. Drinking water and changing positions can help ease any discomfort. Remember, Braxton Hicks are normal and signify your body is gearing up for the big day. ### Leaking Breasts During this week, you may also notice some leaking from your breasts. This is due to breast growth and changes in your body that prepare for breastfeeding. The fluid that may leak is called colostrum. It’s a thick, yellowish fluid rich in nutrients for your baby. It can start to appear as early as 28 weeks. If you experience leaking, wear breast pads to keep yourself comfortable. It’s a sign that your body is getting ready to nourish your baby after birth, so embrace this moment as part of your journey.
