Hard kicking in your belly<\/strong><\/p>\n The soft thuds are increasingly turning into real nudges, kicks, and nudges. These movements are still very much needed to train your child’s muscles. It is still possible now. Soon your child will have much less room and the tumbling will be over. If you don’t feel the baby for a few hours, he or she is probably fast asleep. If you gently press your hands on your belly, you can shake him or her awake. <\/p>\n Perhaps the midwife can also tell you what position your baby is currently in. That way, you can recognize for yourself whether you feel the head, the arms, the legs, or the back. <\/p>\n Your baby’s heartbeat is also becoming increasingly clear now, by the way. While it was previously only audible via a Doppler, your partner should now be able to hear it himself at home. The best spot is about ten centimeters below the navel. There is no need to worry if he doesn’t hear it yet; it is still quite early in the pregnancy. He will definitely hear it by 28 weeks. <\/p>\n Every time you visit the midwife for a check-up, she checks your blood pressure and records it on your pregnancy chart. This is because pregnancy places an extra strain on your body, which could cause high blood pressure. And blood pressure that is too high can, in turn, cause problems at the end of your pregnancy. <\/p>\n High blood pressure can also indicate pre-eclampsia. In that case, the gynecologist will continue to monitor you, because with pre-eclampsia the placenta functions less effectively, which is harmful to your baby. <\/p>\n Een hoge bloeddruk voel je zelf niet. W\u00e9l kan het zijn dat je wat meer vocht gaat vasthouden en je voortdurend hoofdpijn hebt of sterretjes ziet, maar het zelf herkennen is heel lastig. Vandaar dat je verloskundige dat altijd controleert. Als je bloeddruk aan de hoge kant is, zal ze je waarschijnlijk adviseren om wat meer rust te nemen. Ook veel water drinken is goed voor je. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week 25 Hard kicking in your belly Your baby The soft thuds are increasingly turning into real nudges, kicks, and…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":1653,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"templates\/flex.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1798","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1798","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1798"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1798\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1799,"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1798\/revisions\/1799"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/verloskundigenrotterdamwest.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1798"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Your baby<\/h3>\n
