Hello [*data('91.salutation')|html*],
Welcome to week 33 pregnancy newsletter! Here we'll explain one of pregnancy's oddest mysteries... |

Your baby at 33 weeks
Baby's been swallowing amniotic fluid which is sitting in the little one’s tum as 'meconium' a sticky green-black substance. This may make its appearance as their first bowel movement. |

You at 33 weeks
You may see a darkish line appearing down the middle of your tummy. This is called the 'linea nigra'. It's actually a very faint existing line in the skin which has been darkened by a pregnancy hormone. It disappears a few weeks after birth. |

Nutrition: how much food is too much?
Eating more is good: you both need to keep your strength up for the big day. But be wary of putting on more than 1lb a week at this stage. Excessive weight gain could be linked to hypertension so always speak to your GP or midwife if you have any concerns about your weight. |

Pregnancy: Hicks or kicks?
Just a reminder that around now you might be noticing Braxton Hicks contractions. These can feel like the onset of labour but are just a practice. It is worth reading up on how to tell when your labour really starts. |
