Week 37 of your pregnancy

Your baby is about the size of a leek

Practising frowns and smiles. Most babies are now head-down, ready for labour.

You this week

Baby has probably moved down into your pelvis. You may notice more discharge, a nesting urge and easier breathing.

Tips for this week

  • Ask your midwife about the RSV vaccine
  • Ask about newborn screening tests
  • Do your pelvic floor exercises
