Baby's Development -
This week, baby is considered full-term. But baby hasn't stopped growing yet. He or she continues to develop fat at the rate of half an ounce (14 grams) a day. In general, boys weigh more than girls at birth. Baby has developed enough coordination to grasp with the fingers. If shown a bright light, baby may turn toward it in uterus.
Woman's Body -
After this week, woman may lose the mucous plug that sealed off uterus from infection. The mucous plug can be lost a few weeks, days, or hours before labor and is thick, yellowish, and may be tinged with blood (the mucous plug is also called bloody show). As the cervix dilates in preparation for the labor, the plug is discharged from the body. Tell to health care provider about any discharge woman may be having.
