Till now, being pregnant was such a delight and mothers do not experience all the woos they have been hearing from others. As the round ligament pain decreases, it will make way for back pain, which will continue until birth as the weight of the baby increases. Trying to relax and rest as much as possible is the only remedy. Before reaching the 31th week, it is good to shop for bigger lingerie and clothes, as the mother will gain weight. The breasts become bigger in preparation for lactation. Most women will experience leakage of a yellow, sticky liquid, which are colostrums.
