Hello [*data('91.salutation')|html*],
Welcome to your week 31 update. Both your body and your baby are starting to prepare for the big day. |

Your baby at 31 weeks
Baby is about half of its eventual birth weight now (yes it will get even bigger!). He or she is trying out a few birth positions too. By 36 weeks it will probably have decided to be upside down, which is the way 95% of all babies arrive in the world. |

You at 31 weeks
If you are amazed by the size of your breasts, just remember they're gearing up for the most important job they'll ever have to do. If you see yellow flecks on your blouse, it is probably just 'colostrum', the magic early milk that protects newborns just after birth. Use breast pads to absorb it. |

Nutrition: eating for two
Your baby needs to put on up to 1.5kg of weight between now and birth, so you now need be gobbling about 200 extra calories per day. Go for fresh fruit and veg, lean proteins, whole grains and good fats: remember your food choices during the first 1000 days can be vital for your child's future health. |

Pregnancy: are your breasts too small?
No! Breast size has nothing to do with how well you can feed baby. Even the smallest women should produce more than enough milk – it's stimulated by their little one's powerful sucking motion and by mum's hormones. |
