Baby:

The baby
is very aware of the surroundings. We tend to think of the uterus as a
dark place. The uterus actually can be light and dark depending on the
mother's environment. You may be able to distinguish sleep and wake
cycles in your baby. Although it usually seems as if the baby wants to
sleep while you are awake and vice versa at night. This is not
indicative of a sleepless newborn.
If you
are having Braxton Hicks Contractions use them to practice what you've
learned in prenatal classes, and know that they are a sign that your
body is getting ready for labor. The baby notices the contractions, but is not adversely affected by them.
