🤰 Introduction
The final trimester (weeks 29–40) brings anticipation and excitement as the due date approaches. Preparing early ensures a smooth delivery and healthy recovery. Here’s what to focus on, shared by Dr Mamta Agrawal, Gynecologist & Obstetrician at Agrawal Clinic, East Delhi.
🩺 1. Frequent Checkups
Visit your gynecologist every 2–3 weeks, and then weekly after 36 weeks. Regular checkups monitor fetal movements, blood pressure, and signs of pre-eclampsia.
🍎 2. Continue a Nutritious Diet
Increase intake of iron, calcium, and protein. Drink 8–10 glasses of water daily.
Avoid salty foods that may increase swelling or BP.
🧳 3. Prepare Your Hospital Bag
Pack essentials at least 3 weeks before your due date:
- ID card, insurance papers
- Maternity gown, baby clothes, diapers
- Toiletries, charger, and a small towel
💬 4. Recognize Early Labor Signs
- Regular contractions every 5–10 minutes
- Water breaking
- Back pain or pelvic pressure If these occur, call your doctor or rush to the hospital.
🧘♀️ 5. Relax and Stay Positive
Listen to music, meditate, and visualize a safe, positive delivery. Emotional well-being helps both mother and baby.
