What to Expect
At this stage, your baby is about the size of a canary melon. Your healthcare provider may start checking for signs of labor soon, while your baby is busy preparing for birth by positioning themselves in the womb. Fun fact: babies born on August 12 are Leos, known for being outgoing, self-assured, and creative. Their birthstone will be a lovely peridot, which symbolizes peace and happiness.
