During the eighth month of pregnancy, several changes can be observed in the body. Here is a step-by-step discussion of some common changes
Physical changes during the eighth month of pregnancy
1- Abdominal swelling becomes evident in the eighth month of pregnancy. From this time, the head of the fetus descends downwards.
2- Due to hormonal changes, hair growth is greatly reduced during this period. As a result, the hair on the head does not seem to be less.
3- At this time, a yellow liquid called colostrum is released from the breast. This milk is the first drink a mother gives to her child.
4- Hormonal changes cause pigmentation which causes the breast shaft to become darker in color.
5- As a result of swelling of the uterus, stretch marks or cracks are created on the skin.
6- The black line between the lower part of the abdomen and the pubic hairline (vaginal line) becomes darker in color.
