Introduction
Welcome to week 21 of your pregnancy!
What’s Mama up to?
You may start to experience low back ache, associated with a change in posture and weakening of your core muscles. Even more of a reason to keep up with your weekly exercises and stay strong! You may also notice bleeding gums or increased appetite.
What’s baby up to?
Your baby is approximately the size of a bok choy. Their first poo, known as meconium, is starting to form.
