Your baby is now 14 inches and weighs approximately 2 pounds.

Your baby is rapidly growing at this point. Your baby is continuing to gain weight, and his head, body and limbs are now much more in proportion to each other and he is really starting to look like a tiny newborn. This is due to the rapid brain development that began in week 28. Muscles and lungs are also continuing to develop and mature.Your baby's irises are now starting to dilate and react to light.

Because there is so much development and maturing going on, it is incredibly important to ensure that you are getting plenty of nutrients and rest. Make sure that you are getting adequate amounts of protein, vitamin C, folic acid, iron, and calcium.

The top of your uterus can be felt 4 inches above your belly button.Your total pregnancy weight gain should now be between 20 - 25 pounds.
 
 It is common for pregnant women to develop haemorrhoids during pregnancy. haemorrhoids are swollen veins around your back passage that can feel itchy or sore. Constipation occurs when there is abdominal pain or discomfort, difficult infrequent bowel movements, and the passage of hard stools. Constipation can make haemorrhoids worse so avoid it by eating foods that are high in fibre, like wholemeal bread, fruit and vegetables and drinking lots of water.
