Your body: You may be feeling flushed due to the blood volume in your body and you’ve probably noticed you’ve gained 15-20 pounds. Make sure to keep your calcium and iron intake high because you and your baby need it.
Baby: You may be thinking about whether you want your baby circumcised or not. In some religions and cultures, circumcision, cutting a baby boy’s foreskin, is a matter of custom and belief. In others, boy babies are never circumcised. For many people without clear cultural guidelines, circumcision is a difficult, but important choice to make. You may want to start working with your birth support partner to plan your birth.
