The kicking is becoming very obvious now, and quite clearly visible. Roughly half an hour after eating, the gymnastics begin. Priti's appetite has rocketed.
The pressure of the bump is producing ever-more side effects in Priti. Her legs are driving her crazy, sort of fizzing, which I guess is a result of pressure on sciatic nerves as the pelvis distorts. Presumably pregnant bellies developed during the quadrupedal phase, and the relatively recent move to bipedalism has compromised our internal layout (think of the large intestine's route). Perhaps if she went around on all fours, life would be easier. Then again, perhaps not.
According to the Rough Guide, at 25 weeks the fetus is about 730g (1lb 9oz) and 220mm from head to bum.
