A 38 week pregnancy is considered full term. This means that the baby is ready to be born and can survive outside the womb. There are a few things that you can do to help prepare for the birth.
One of the most important things is to make a birth plan. This document will outline your preferences for the birth, such as whether you want to have a natural birth or if you would like pain relief. It is also important to discuss your plan with your doctor or midwife.
Another important thing to do is to stock up on supplies for the baby. This includes diapers, wipes, clothes, and a car seat. You will also want to pack a bag for yourself, which should include items like a change of clothes, snacks, and a phone charger.
The 38th week of pregnancy is also a good time to start thinking about breastfeeding. You can attend a breastfeeding class or talk to your doctor or midwife about breastfeeding. They can provide you with information about the best way to start breastfeeding and how to deal with common problems.
If you are having a c-section, you will want to make arrangements for someone to take care of your other children. You will also need to pack a bag for the hospital. This should include items like pajamas, a toothbrush, and a change of clothes.

Week 6 Pregnancy Bleeding
It is common for some pregnant women to experience light bleeding during their sixth week of pregnancy. This bleeding is usually caused by the implantation of the fertilized egg into the uterine wall, which can cause some spotting. While this bleeding can be alarming, it is usually nothing to worry about and typically subsides within a few days. If the bleeding is heavier or accompanied by other symptoms, such as cramping, then it is best to consult with a healthcare provider.
Hip Pain Early Pregnancy 3 Weeks
Many women experience hip pain early in their pregnancies. While the cause of this pain is not always clear, there are a few things that may contribute to it. One possibility is that the extra weight of the baby is putting pressure on the hip joint. Additionally, the hormone relaxin, which is produced during pregnancy, can cause the ligaments that support the hip joint to become more lax. This can lead to pain and instability in the joint.
If you are experiencing hip pain early in your pregnancy, there are a few things that you can do to help alleviate the discomfort. First, try to avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time. When you can, take a break and move around to keep the blood flowing. You may also want to try using a pillow to support your hips when you are sitting. Additionally, you can try exercises that can help to strengthen the muscles around the hip joint. One such exercise is called the wall sit. To do this exercise, stand with your back against a wall and slowly slide your bottom down the wall until your thighs are parallel to the floor. Hold this position for 30 seconds, and then slowly slide back up the wall. Repeat 10 times.
If the hip pain is severe or does not improve with these measures, you may want to speak to your doctor. He or she may be able to prescribe a medication or other treatment to help relieve the pain.
