Watch our video guide to Week 31 of your pregnancy journey:
What's Happening in Week 31?
Your baby is now about the size of a coconut, weighing approximately 1.5kg! They're gaining weight rapidly - about 230g per week from now until birth. The brain is working overtime, developing faster than ever.
All five senses are now functioning. Your baby can see, hear, feel, taste, and even has a basic sense of smell. They're processing information and making connections between brain cells.
Tips for Week 31
- Your belly is getting quite large - balance may be affected
- Practice breathing exercises for labor
- Finalize your birth plan with your healthcare provider
- Consider a late pregnancy 3D/4D scan
