We\u2019re entering the last 20 weeks or so of the pregnancy! Maybe a little longer\u2026 Maybe a little shorter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll start to notice your belly growing now! Your uterus will rise above your belly button. Your abdominal muscles will have a hard time keeping up, causing your belly to protrude more. There\u2019s no hiding the fact that you\u2019re pregnant anymore! Everyone experiences this differently. Some people love having a pregnant belly, while others don\u2019t at all! How you feel can also vary greatly throughout your pregnancy\u2014from fantastic to terrible, and everything in between! Be honest about this and feel free to discuss your feelings with us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may experience dizziness. This is caused by what\u2019s known as the \u201cmid-pregnancy drop\u201d\u2014a drop in blood pressure that reaches its lowest point around 20 weeks. This can make you feel dizzy, so be sure to get up slowly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Baby<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The baby is growing quite a bit again\u2014about 10 cm. From the size of a grapefruit to that of a stalk of celery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The baby's eyes open for the first time. Hair begins to grow, and the baby can hear more and more sounds. The baby's skin was very transparent at first. It will now gradually become more pink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The baby is viable at 24 weeks. He or she is still very fragile, but if he or she were to be born, the doctors would fight to save his or her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Course<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a great time to take a course or start one!
