20 Weeks Pregnant with Twins or Multiples
You made it! You are now officially at the 50% mark of carrying your babies. With a 20-week twin foetus present in your womb all safe and sound, the happiness and excitement would be infectious to everyone. Most women tend to be at their best behaviour and feel ecstatic around this time, while an unlucky few might still be battling the bouts of nausea. The good news is that all of it will pretty much come to an end because more important things are on their way. And these are not merely related to your own body, but also for the babies who will see some of the most significant changes in their own body in the coming months.
The Growth of the Babies At 20 Weeks
The 20th week of pregnancy holds immense importance for babies for their development, as well as for doctors since it provides a massive load of information about your kids, helping them make the right medical decisions.
One of the largest internal developments that your children have is the development of the ability to know how one flavour is different from the other. They might not be able to identify or pin it down to a specific one conclusively, but they can taste the difference. Around this week, babies start consuming the amniotic fluid, through which they get their nutrition. This fluid tends to change its taste based on what you’ve had in your meals. Most of the times the taste borders on sweet and resembles the same flavour as that of your breastmilk. Combined with the reflexive tendency to suck on their thumbs when they drink the fluid, this is the first nudging of the evolutionary process to learn to breastfeed.
The triplets or twins residing inside your womb are now beginning to form their own biological gender identities. Male babies will have developed a small penis while their scrotal sacs will start descending to form the testicles. This process is pretty gradual since the scrotum needs to finish growing entirely for the testes to descend in them. Similarly, female babies will have developed their ovaries inside, with more than 5 million eggs already formed inside it, which tends to reduce by the time they emerge out into the real world. Similarly, her uterus also approaches completion while her vaginal canal initiates its growth in this week, creating a miraculous companionship inside you.
What is The Size of the Babies
Most babies tend to grow by around an extra centimetre from the last week, coming to about 15 to 16 centimetres, when measured from their head to their butt. Their weight also increases by approximately 40-60 grams, which might be less for multiples. In any case, your little ones would now be as large as a small banana in this week.
Common Bodily Changes
The completion of nearly half the pregnancy journey begins to put the body in a good sense of calm and stability. That being said, certain typical signs can affect the body’s behaviour much more intensely, than its physical appearance.
Whether you’ve been a fitness enthusiast or a woman who has had a fit body usually, the onset of the pregnancy and the growing belly would feel extremely weird around this time. In the usual state, the muscles that are present in the abdominal region, generally termed as abs, are arranged in a specific order, even if they may or may not be visible under your tummy fat. But once the uterus starts pushing your belly outside and attempts to make space for itself in the abdominal region, the muscles also need to move around and rearrange themselves to suit the changed structure. Women who have been used to seeing their muscles might be in for a weird vision when they lie down and see their stomach. This rearrangement is never painful, but very few women usually speak about lower back pain as a result of it.
The uterus expansion does not merely shift the organs in the abdominal region. It also begins to affect the ones present in the upper areas of your torso. All of this shifting starts affecting your diaphragm as well as your lungs. This might not make itself felt physical, but its effect would be pretty evident once you exert yourself or partake in an activity that increases your heart rate. Most women tend to mention about times when they find themselves taking short breaths or failing to take a large deep breath the way they could take before. Thankfully, this does not cause any problem to the pregnant mother, but care does need to be taken to make sure you don’t push yourself harder as a result of it.
While most changes might make you feel like the 20th week of pregnancy would be revolving around coming to terms with some more bodily changes that are discomforting to you, one of the welcomed effects is a high-level of energy that revitalises your very core. With nausea levels falling and the excitement of holding your babies taking over you, this mid-pregnancy period would be one of the highly treasured ones in your life.
Symptoms Of Twin Pregnancy At 20 Weeks
None of the signs that you might witness when pregnant with triplets or multiple babies is anything out of the ordinary from what you might have seen in the previous weeks. Most of them are just repeated irritations or only remnants of the past.
Water retention, boosted circulation, pooling of blood, and the ever-expanding uterus will all result in swellings and cramps in numerous areas of the body. The typical ones are your feet and legs, along with your face in certain areas. As long as the swelling doesn’t seem out of the ordinary, it all seems to be safe. Similarly, any stress on the abdomen or the back will result in an ache, which can usually seem to go away once appropriately massaged.
The stomach and intestines work in tandem to properly digest your food and help synthesise its nutrition. Their functioning depends heavily on their proper location within the body, and the levels of various hormones that regulate their activities. In pregnancy, the hormone levels are all over the place. Therefore, indigestion, passing farts, and constipation will be ever-present for quite some time.
Another sign of worry for women might be the discharge that continues to occur from the vagina. While it might look weird, it is normal. On the contrary, it is a strong sign that your body is functioning appropriately. Any foul smell or an odd colour of the discharge could spell the presence of an infection.
Twin Pregnancy - Belly At 20 Weeks
Once you have reached the 20th week of your pregnancy, most doctors would start measuring how large your belly is, and then continue doing so. This becomes another parameter to track the progress of your pregnancy. The measurements are usually taken from the front of the belly starting from the navel, around to your pubic bone.
The uterus sinks further below in the abdominal region, with the belly continuing to grow steadily, with an increased curvature. In the presence of triplets or multiples, the pressure can get too taxing for you, which can be reduced by using a maternity belt for support.
Twin Pregnancy at 20 Weeks - Ultrasound
The ultrasound that your doctor conducts around this period is one of the most crucial ones on all fronts.
If you have had regular checkups, you would be quick to notice the extended duration this ultrasound scan will take. This is because your doctor would observe your babies in-depth to understand if there are any anomalies or defects visible in their growth.
Similarly, you would be able to see your babies in more detail as well as listen to their strong heartbeats.
What To Eat
Balanced nutrition needs to continue through this week as well. This is also an excellent time to shift from a typical meal-eating routine to a one that is focused more on grazing through food throughout the day. Boiled and steamed food items remain at the top of the list, along with any nutritional supplements. Make sure your cravings don’t get in the way of a healthy diet.
Pregnancy Care Tips
Though things are changing, your pregnancy requires only the necessary tips to take care of itself effectively.
Dos
Start signing up for childbirth classes and discussing your birthing plans.
Focus heavily on maintaining high iron levels in your nutrition.
Dont's
Avoid indulging in stressful thinking regarding the future of your children.
Don’t forget to pair good food with a healthy exercise regimen at the right time.
What You Need To Shop For
The mid-point of your pregnancy is a great time to indulge in some useful shopping. You can purchase necessities such as:
Decorative items for the child’s crib or nursery
Thermal clothes and boots if the due date is in winter
Being pregnant with twins at 20 weeks should put you in a position of happiness and confidence. You have safely got your babies this far and there’s just the same amount of time to go ahead. In no time, you will have the babies in your arms and your heart will be filled with joy about being a mother.

World Breastfeeding Week - History and Significance
The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) organises the annual event of World Breastfeeding Week from August 1st to August 7th. The idea behind organising such an event was solely to promote, support, and encourage breastfeeding amongst new mothers throughout the world.
Why Is World Breastfeeding Week Celebrated?
This event is celebrated every year to protect, promote, support and encourage breastfeeding mothers everywhere across the globe. World Breastfeeding Week was celebrated for the first time during the year 1992, and since that time, it has been recognised by organisations and institutions worldwide. The WABA had decided to dedicate an entire week to increase the awareness and spread more information about breastfeeding to communities worldwide, which gave birth to the World Breastfeeding Week (WBW).
History of World Breastfeeding Week
The importance of breastfeeding was globally recognised back in 1990, when the World Health Organization (WHO) and United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) created a memorandum known as the Innocenti Declaration, to protect, promote and support breastfeeding. The Innocenti Declaration is a formal document that was created to achieve goals including:
Creating a national breastfeeding committee and also appointing a national breastfeeding coordinator across countries.
Facilitating the provision of maternity care practice and taking measures to ensure that women are adequately nourished to feed their child and remain healthy themselves.
Formulating and enforcing of laws that will protect the breastfeeding rights of women.
Formulating an act to implement all the articles of the International Code of Marketing of Breast Milk Substitutes and WHO resolutions.
Enabling women to exclusively breastfeed their babies up until 4-6 months of age.
The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) was formed in the year 1991 to execute all the goals outlined in the Innocenti Declaration. WABA is responsible for spreading the awareness and importance of breastfeeding at a global level. Some of the important initiatives of WABA include:
Supporting and encouraging mothers to continue to breastfeed
Baby-friendly hospital initiatives
Guiding and educating the fathers to support the mothers, health care workers, and the community
Framing of laws and policies to protect and support breastfeeding mothers
How to Celebrate World Breastfeeding Week
The World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) celebrations are meant to unite the breastfeeding community all around the world, enhance public support towards breastfeeding, and achieving the goals of the Innocenti Declaration. In the first year of its celebration, around 70 countries were involved in the celebration of WBW, but today this number has grown to 170 countries! There are many ways to celebrate the WBW; you can do any one or more of the following things.
1. Breastfeed Your Little One
The best way to celebrate World Breastfeeding Week is, of course, by starting to feed and nourish your little one! While we all know a mother is always there to feed her baby irrelevant of any dates or celebrations, if you are in that phase of your life where you're nursing your baby, then you must definitely do so with gusto during this week!
2. Attend Events, Lectures or Walks Sponsored by Various Agencies
Many institutions sponsor walks, seminars, etc. to create awareness during WBW. They provide tees with logos, bracelets, etc., to show their support towards the cause.
3. Go for a Breastfeeding Vacation
Take some time off from your routine life and go on a vacation with your family. Enjoy the bliss of nursing your baby during this time, without being bogged down by the tasks and worries you deal with daily. Take some time to unwind and relax, indulge in yoga, meditation or any activity that rejuvenates your mind, body and soul. And while planning for the vacation, make sure to include 'shop for the perfect bra' in your to-do list, as the right bra can definitely help maintain the health of your breasts, especially during this crucial time.
4. Post Your ‘Brelfie’
A trend started by the World Health Organisation (WHO) encourages moms to share their breastfeeding selfies or 'brelfies' on social media. It was a move to break the stigma regarding breastfeeding in public and also to spread the importance of breastfeeding for the physical and mental development of the child. So when World Breastfeeding Week rolls around, you too can post your brelfie on Instagram with the hashtag #BraveBrelfie to share your experience with WHO.
5. Share Your Breastfeeding Experience
Breastfeeding is a natural phenomenon, and your experience with your baby is something which you must share with nursing mothers or expecting mothers. In spite of so many efforts to spread awareness regarding the importance of mother’s milk, only 50% of the population of babies are being nursed beyond six months of age, and only half of them make it to one year of age. In many underdeveloped countries, mothers are not given any support when it comes to them nursing their babies; there may be issues and problems they're facing that they don't have information about. The more you talk about your experiences, the more you can reach out to such people and help them throughout their journey of motherhood.
6. Say Thanks to a Nursing Mom
Take this as an opportunity to say thanks to a nursing mother or a nursing caretaker whom you know. A small word of appreciation and a smile can create a big difference in the lives of many people. If you are one of them, then just take a moment to appreciate yourself for the wonderful gift you're giving your baby!
Themes of World Breastfeeding Week
The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action designs a new theme and slogan to represent the World Breastfeeding Week every year. They are specially designed to focus on a particular aspect of breastfeeding. After finalising the theme, the marketing materials such as brochures, posters, banners, advertisements, and websites are designed by the WABA to spread the topic of the year.
These themes, slogans, and materials can be used by government organisations, breastfeeding communities, hospitals, healthcare institutes, pharmaceuticals and other organisations to host seminars, events, lectures and spread awareness about breastfeeding locally and internationally. Some of the past themes of WBW include:
Breastfeeding - It's Your Right
Breastfeeding in the Information Age
Breastfeeding - Education for Life
Breastfeeding - Nature's Way
Breastfeeding - a Vital Emergency Response
Mother-Friendly Workplace Initiative (MFWI)
Discussing breastfeeding in public, and spreading awareness about it is still considered a taboo subject in many places in India. However, as educated individuals, we must come forward and work towards removing the social stigma surrounding this topic. As an enlightened and responsible citizen, your participation in local celebration and events will make a significant difference.

How to make your Kid's birthday FUN during this Lockdown
Does your kid’s birthday fall some time during the lockdown
period? Let’s make it fun. Lockdown should certainly not keep us from
celebrating and enjoying our children’s birthdays.Everything is on a pause state right now. The world is put
on hold. Although, small relaxations are in place now during this Lockdown 3.0,
it is really not safe to venture out. Also, apart from the essentials, no shops
are open throughout the day to purchase items necessary enough for a
celebration. Therefore, it is left to the parents to make it big, fun-filled
and the most memorable birthday ever. Why should a lockdown be a hindrance?Here are some tips that I would like to list down to make
the day special. These tips are really useful if the kids are of age above 4 or
5 years when they tend to really understand, appreciate and enjoy the
celebrations to the fullest. Having said that, some of the following tips can
absolutely be incorporated as per your kids’ age and liking too. My little
boy’s paediatrician made a wise comment when we took him to consult on a sudden
high fever, just couple of days before his first birthday, ”For kids less than
3 years, birthday is just another day and celebration doesn’t matter to them.
The celebration is for the adults and by the adults. Why do you trouble the
little ones?” We realized the sheer truth in what he mentioned soon after. J So, dear parents, you
can fit in what you can and based on the choice of your kids. These are just
ideas which can be twisted and tweaked as per your requirements and ability.1.
Announce
that there is going to be a surprise. Do a countdown: First thing in the
morning, let your kid know that there is a surprise planned in the evening and
that there is going to be a little celebration. You could also do a countdown
every hour till the party-time to make it more interesting. Allocate a specific
room for the celebration and keep your kid away from that place to make the
surprise more relishing.2.
Choose a
theme: Choose a theme, say, sunshine, any cartoon character, little
Krishna, Barbie or anything that your kid loves, and prepare some simple and
small props related to the theme. Use them to decorate the room. DIY cardboard
and paper crafts are fun to make. You could also involve your kid in putting
them together.3.
DIY
Confetti: If you have any old decorative paper or thorans, it’s time to use them. Decorate the room with that shiny
stuff and also make some confetti. Tear papers into little bits and colour them
or have them dipped in paint and let it dry. Shower these during the time of
celebration.4.
A quick
chocolate cake/any special sweet that your kid likes: If you are good at
baking, then it certainly calls for a superb cake. If not, there are a lot of
online tutorials which can guide you in preparing a chocolate cake, pastries or
even a small chocolava cake using just biscuits and kitchen ingredients. Refer
to them and surprise your child with a nice cake. Also, don’t miss out on that
favourite sweet that your kid would love hogging on.5.
Take the
help of technology: If people cannot be physically present for the
celebrations, let’s do it virtual. Set up a time for the celebration and gather
your relatives and close friends (do bring in your kid’s friends too) over a
group video call to wish your child on his/her birthday. Make the celebration a
reason for a little family and friends reunion. That certainly is so much fun
and your kid would feel all loved and cherish the evening forever. If you could
plan the evening well ahead, then there is nothing like a wonderful video
combining everyone’s birthday messages
for your kid.6.
A small
treasure hunt: if your kid enjoys playing it, then organize a treasure hunt
will scattered little clues that finally leads him/her to a cute gift. Gift could
be anything you can think of, right from the cake (if you are doing it just
before the start of the event), any hand-made article or a favourite sweet.
Give it a thought and make the whole hunt more amusing and entertaining.7.
A cute
photo shoot: With so much of effort put into making the day splendid, click
away some nice photos which stand as proof of the show you pulled off very
well. Memories are priceless. If you had made DIY props, use them all to do a
well-planned and great photo shoot. You need not have an SLR camera; just your
HD camera phones should do a good job.8.
Make a
special dinner: This celebration at the end of a wonderful day sure calls
for some great food. Cook your kid’s favourite dishes and have an awesome
family dinner.9.
Music:
Is any celebration complete without music? Definitely not! Set up a music
system, collect some good songs that you would all love to hear and those that
make the atmosphere vibrant, play them in loops and enjoy the evening. A
brilliant happy-birthday song would make your child’s day.10.
End the
day with a game: Once you are done with the dinner, choose any games to
close the day. It could be a board game or anything fun that your kid loves
playing. In case of older children, it could also be a movie that you all enjoy
watching together. Rules can be bent a little on special days!These are my suggestions to turn the birthday locked-down at
home to a wonderful and eventful day. Of course, one’s imagination is unlimited
and you can take hints from the above tips and create your own plans and make
it a sweet one. Go ahead and plan the birthday well!

10 Ways Leaders Use Silence to Enhance Their Power and How You Can Too!
Our minds are engulfed with numerous thoughts right from the time we get up in the morning to the time we go back to sleep at night. In this noisy world where most of us have internal noises to fight too, it is so important to embrace silence. You might have noticed that a moment of silence helps you calm your mind, visualise things better, and lends your mind immense benefits. No wonder silence is practised by great leaders to enhance their power, and if you wish to know how you can achieve the same benefits, we suggest reading the post below for a thorough insight into this topic.
The Hidden Benefits of Silence
In ancient times, our world had no chaos of human-made sounds, and silence prevailed everywhere. When we practise silence; we benefit greatly from it. Let us learn some of the benefits of practising silence.
1. Better Conversations
When you remain silent, you let the other person talk, which means you care to listen and when you do so, people feel comfortable talking to you. Thus, conversations become deeper and better.
2. Better Response
Seldom do we realise the effects of our response to a situation on the other person. If you practice silence, you may be able to focus and think better before you utter your response. When there is a gap between feelings and response, you may not only be deliberate with your words, but it may also deliver wiser, and meaningful words.
3. Mindfulness And Self-compassion
Silence is not only effective and beneficial while dealing with others, but it is great for your overall well-being too. Silence triggers mindfulness, which means you visualise your feelings and emotions with a better perspective, and it also involves self-compassion, which means handling various situations with sympathy, kindness and understanding.
4. Beneficial For Physical Health
Silence is great for lowering blood pressure levels and reducing stress by regulating adrenaline and cortisol levels. It is also effective in improving brain chemistry by growing new cells and helps in improving the immunity of the body.
5. Improved Creativity
Silence is a great way of improving creativity. This is because when you practise this virtue, the healing power of silence helps you integrate your thoughts and thus spin them into meaningful avenues.
How to Embrace The Power of Silence
Silence may not come naturally to us, especially when there are so many external distractions. However, if you make a conscious and deliberate effort, you can create peace and silence within yourself. Let's see how we can embrace the power of silence.
1. Meditation
One of the easiest and most effective ways of embracing silence is by practising meditation. The best time to practice meditation, especially for beginners is in the morning. However, if you are a pro, sneaking a few minutes out of your busy life for some soulful experience is worth the effort.
2. Listen More, Talk Less
Most of indulge in conversations not to listen but to speak. When our minds are filled with numerous thoughts and emotions, it can be difficult to practise silence. However, if you become a good listener, you may not only be indulging in more meaningful conversations, but you may also reap the benefits of being on the reclusive side, which may help you stay calm and gain some meaningful insights.
3. Reduce The Noise Around
Whenever you are alone, try and minimise the noise that surrounds you, once in a while. It may not only help you feel relaxed and centred but will also enhance your potential and productivity. So next time you are alone in your car, house or workplace for some time, try muting the noises around and see how peaceful and calm you would feel.
4. Begin Your Day With Silence
Instead of succumbing to the urge of picking up your phone, switching on the television for the latest news or reading the newspaper with your morning cup of tea or coffee, you should simply sit relaxed and silent. Soak in the morning peace and tranquillity and see how it transforms you, making you feel energetic for the rest of the day.
5. Praying
Whenever you visit a temple, mosque or church, notice the kind of positivity and tranquillity that prevails inside. Well, the places of worship are amongst the best places where you can embrace the power of silence. You can also pray, sitting in the comfort of your house. Praying to that divine existence is a great way of bringing silence and calmness in your life.
6. Take A Solo Trip
If you think a trip all by yourself would be boring, wait until you embark on one. You may realise how important it is to be all by yourself and soak in your silence and peace of your soul. Being alone certainly does not mean being lonely. Instead, it is a great way to connect with your inner self and feel the calmness and silence of your soul.
7. Break From Social Media
Most of us are big social media fans, and we keep checking our phones every few minutes to be apprised with what is happening with the people we know (or don’t know). But have you ever realised the impact of social media on the silence of our minds? Well, one of the most effective ways of practising silence is by taking an occasional break from social media, for feeling the silence of your mind.
8. Find A Quiet Corner
Whenever your mind is surrounded by external or internal turmoil, you should take refuge in silence, and for that, you can assign a designated place in your house. You need not name it or tell everyone about your silent place, but whenever you feel the need, you should slip into this place for some silent-time. It can be any place in your house, for example, your study, your prayer room, a corner in your garden, etc.
9. Go Hiking
Arrange a hiking trip, either solo or with a friend. The idea is to seize the opportunity to feel the vastness and openness of nature, which in turn, may help you get in sync with your internal silence.
10. Practise Yoga
Just like meditation, yoga is very effective in helping you experience the true power of silence. When you practice yoga, you let go off fluctuations and doubts from your mind, which in turn may help you gain better knowledge and perspective about yourself.
Silence can prove to be of great benefit and importance if we learn to use it wisely. We hope that this article helps you understand the value of this virtue. Therefore, make use of silence, because it truly has the power to improve your life.
