Ready for the cervix<\/strong><\/p>\n Your belly is now completely filled with baby. Sometimes you feel the pokes, pushes, and kicks in three places at once. He or she is positioned, ready for the cervix. Your child’s bones are still so flexible that they easily adapt to the birth canal during labor. <\/p>\n Ook het hoofdje kan er makkelijk door omdat er openingen tussen de schedelbeenderen zitten (fontanellen). Deze kunnen tijdens de geboorte over elkaar schuiven, zodat het hoofdje wat smaller wordt en er makkelijker door kan. De eerste tijd na de bevalling kan het hoofdje hierdoor wat ovaal van vorm zijn, maar dit trekt vanzelf bij. <\/p>\n The baby is surrounded (in the amniotic sac) by approximately another liter of amniotic fluid, which is refreshed every two hours. If your water breaks, your baby is no longer protected against infections. You must then have strong contractions within 24 hours. If it takes longer, you must go to the hospital because the risk of the baby contracting an infection is too great. <\/p>\n You must go to the hospital immediately if your water breaks before you are 37 weeks pregnant, if your baby has pooped in the amniotic fluid, or if the baby is in a breech position.<\/p>\n Het einde komt nu in zicht. Misschien ga je deze week al wel bevallen, maar het kan ook nog wel drie weken duren. De kinderkamer is klaar, alle benodigde spulletjes zijn in huis gehaald en het ziekenhuiskoffertje staat misschien ook al klaar. <\/p>\n Incidentally, it is not strictly necessary to have already decided where you want to give birth: at home or in the hospital. You can also postpone that decision until the very last moment. Only when you are actually having contractions can you best judge where you feel most comfortable. <\/p>\n If you absolutely want to give birth in the hospital, it can be helpful to take a look at the delivery room beforehand. However, this does not mean that you will always give birth there. If there is no room available at the time you are due to give birth, you will be referred to another hospital. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week 39 Ready for the cervix Your baby Your belly is now completely filled with baby.
