Week 27 of the pregnancy journey — First Sight of the Sea, The Southern Gate

What happens in week 27

A ruined stone colonnade on a clifftop. The sun sets over the sea visible through the openings — and there it is, finally: the sea, glittering, vast. You've crossed the mountains. The Threshold Coast lies below, and the islands beyond are a smudge on the horizon.

Pick one. There’s no wrong answer — only a different road.

Notes for the road — week 27 in the real world

End of the second trimester.

From here, things get heavier — literally and otherwise. The baby starts gaining significant weight, your appointments shift to every two weeks, and the third trimester is famously the longest one for how it feels (even though it's the same 13 weeks). You've crossed the mountains. The crossing itself is ahead.

✦ Take a maternity photo if you've been putting it off. T3 changes your shape week by week.
✦ Plan your hospital bag. Don't pack it yet — but make a list.
✦ If you've been thinking about a babymoon trip, this is your last weekend window. After 28 weeks, most airlines stop letting you fly without a doctor's note.
