Advice for Mom
You may notice your breasts enlarging -- many women have an increase of one or two cup sizes. A good support bra is a wonderful investment now. You should be scheduled for an ultrasound within the next few week. Ask if you can bring a video tape to tape it! Imagine showing those home movies! Now is a good time to take a tour of the birthing center or hospital. Ask about labor routines, visiting restrictions and rooming in.
