Week 29 development milestones
About the size of a butternut squash. Your baby is steadily packing on fat and the wrinkly skin is starting to smooth out.
What's Happening This Week
- Bones hardening Baby needs around 250 mg of calcium a day — taken from you.
- Brain growing Head is getting bigger to make room for the growing brain.
- Fat building Soft fat layers keep building under the skin.
- Still vernix The protective waxy coating is still there.
Tip Of The Week
- Eat calcium-rich foods every day — milk, yogurt, ragi, and leafy greens.
- This week, your baby's bones are hardening, and his/her muscles strengthening.
- In fact, you may have noticed from his/her kicks and jabs that they are growing stronger each week.
- Bones appear bright white on a sonogram.
- Although you can't see it in this image, your baby has probably been practicing his/her breathing movements this week, though the lungs still need more time to mature.
