Pregnancy - 28
Your baby
At 38cm long and 2lb 3oz in weight, your baby can now look round and open and close his eyes. His other senses are now almost complete – he can taste, touch and recognise your voice without difficulty.
As your baby grows, he’ll find there’s less and less space to roll around in, but will still kick for all he’s worth! In search of a comfortable position, he’ll start to pull his arms and legs up towards his chest in the classic foetal position.

Indigestion is no fun later in pregnancy, even if it’s not accompanied by the dreaded heartburn. Caused in part by hormonal changes in your body, not to mention the physical effect of the growing womb pressing on your stomach, it’s an inconvenient – though temporary – downside of your baby’s development.
To alleviate some of the worse effects of indigestion, try the following tips for yourself:
-
Try eating smaller meals more often – large meals late in the
day can be difficult for your body to process
in one go - Take the pressure off your tummy by sitting up straight when you eat
- Steer clear of trouble-making foods that are hard for the body to digest at the best of times, like fried food
