20 weeks pregnant and you are officially halfway through your pregnancy. Congratulations on reaching this milestone!
Time flies fast, doesn’t it? Soon enough, you will finally get to hold your baby in your arms! While you’re still halfway through, don’t forget to eat to a balanced diet containing plenty of B vitamins and good fats to support your baby’s growth and development.
Your uterus is busy preparing itself for the third trimester. By this time, you will have a prominent pregnant belly. Your doctor or midwife will now measure the fundal height, which runs from your pubic bone to the top of uterus or fundus.
The measurement in centimeters corresponds to how far you are along. For example, if your fundal height measure 20 cm (7.8 in), then you should be approximately 20 weeks pregnant. An appropriate size is a good sign that your pregnancy is progressing quite well.
