Pregnancy Week by Week/Week 33: Immune System

Week 33: Immune System Development
At this stage, the bones in your baby's skull are not fused together, allowing them to move and slightly overlap during birth. Their skin is becoming softer and smoother, providing better protection.
Most importantly, your baby's immune system is developing rapidly as antibodies pass from you to your baby, helping to build their defenses against infections. Your baby is now about the size of a pineapple.
Your Body During Week 33
As your baby grows, you may experience several physical changes and symptoms. Insomnia is common due to frequent bathroom trips, leg cramps, heartburn, and the growing pregnant belly. You might notice bleeding gums and edema (swelling) in your hands and face. Additionally, the increased blood flow and pressure from your uterus can cause swelling of the labia.
Hati Health Tips for Week 33
To support you and your baby during this time, consider the following tips:
- Stock up on baby clothes and supplies to be prepared for your little one's arrival.
- Narrow down baby names to make the final decision easier.
- Drink lactose-free milk to prevent bloating and diarrhea, which can be common during pregnancy.
- Sleep on your side to improve comfort and circulation.
By understanding these changes and following these tips, you can better prepare for the final weeks of your pregnancy and support your babys healthy development.
