Baby at 29 Weeks Pregnant

Baby’s kicking (on average) ten times an hour. You very well may have the next Messi growing in your partner’s uterus.

Baby’s bones are continuing to form. Make sure your partner is getting plenty of calcium.

At this point, baby has the sense of taste. Have your partner consult with him before deciding where to eat for dinner. I’m thinking Cheesecake Factory.

Mom at 29 Weeks Pregnant

She may have puffy, swollen legs, ankles, feet, and fingers right now. If she’s got swollen feet, invest in some slip-on shoes for her.

She’s getting increasingly uncomfortable. She has to pee a lot. She might be passing gas left and right. She might be tired of sleeping on her side. Consider giving her the side of the bed closest to the bathroom. Just because she’s not sleeping well doesn’t mean you need to lose sleep!

When’s the last time you told her she’s beautiful? She still wants to hear it, and she probably really needs to hear it this week.

Pregnancy Tips for Dad at 29 Weeks

Consider reading some of the baby books lying around. Just because she’s the one having the baby doesn’t mean you don’t have to know anything.

Do you have a name picked out yet? Make sure you’re giving some name opinions, and hope she doesn’t veto your picks.

Veto…hey, that’s a nice name.

Side note: if she passes gas, don’t judge her. She doesn’t have control sometimes these days. Just don’t retaliate with gas of your own.
