Your baby at 37 weeks
Most babies at this stage are resting with their arms folded and head down. There is very little room left for rolling around, so they might poke or kick a bit. It's fine to stroke back gently to let them know you're there and can't wait to see them. |

You at 37 weeks
The big day is getting close and you're probably a bundle of excitement and nerves. Who wouldn't be? Practise your breathing exercises to help you relax. If you feel contractions, check your watch. Contact the hospital when you're contracting every 10 minutes for an hour, or if you're in any doubt. |

Breastfeeding: support and advice
Breastfeeding is one of the more natural things to do, and breast milk has the best form of nutrition for your baby. There is no shortage of support on breastfeeding-you can talk to your Midwife or GP about it! Ante-natal classes are a good source of information too. |

Pregnancy: easing the pain
Whether you're in hospital or at home for the birth, you'll be in good hands. Excellent pain relief will be available, such as gas and air, the TENS system, some drugs, or natural options like acupuncture. Discuss with your midwife now so you have a birth plan ready for the day. |
