At 29 weeks of pregnancy, the gestational age equals about 7 months and 1 week. This marks the beginning of the third and final trimester of pregnancy.

During the third trimester, baby movements usually become stronger and easier to feel. It is also common to experience symptoms such as shortness of breath and frequent urination, caused by the baby’s growth and the increased pressure on the bladder. Read more about symptoms and changes that occur in pregnancy week by week.

If there are concerns about the pregnancy or questions about what to expect in the following months, it is best to consult an obstetrician. Keeping up with prenatal care as recommended by a healthcare provider is important to help prevent complications during pregnancy.
