You

If you have ever had acne, this could appear now. You can control the situation by using the sensitive face cleaning agent and frequent drinking of water. The anti-nausea medicines prescribed by the doctor could be also now of help. Tiredness and drowsiness still disturb you. You might have gain or lost weight – depending on whether you were in trouble with nausea and vomiting seizures or not. Your pregnancy is not yet visible externally.

 

Your baby

The embryo is 10 mm long. Hands, legs and face start to develop. Darker spots, i.e. eyes could be seen on the face and ears can be also noted. The skin of the fetus is sensitive and it has an ability to sense the touch. The bones stat developing in the tiny palms where the limbs start. The main organs like heart, kidneys, liver, lungs and pancreas have been formed and develop further on. The liver of the embryo starts generating first red corpuscles.

 

Dr. Marek Šois recommends

If you are tired, take a nap during daytime, if possible. You could walk in the fresh air to get positive emotional and physical energy – this is good for you and the baby growing inside. If you still have not detected pregnancy at the doctor’s, do it.

 

If you wish to know whether this is a live fetus and whether you are expecting multiples and you wish to specify the size of pregnancy, you might be interested in our pregnancy detection and fetal viability assessment.

 

Why is it important to know the exact size of pregnancy and the estimated due date of birth?

The size of pregnancy is assessed in case of regular menstruation from the first date of the last menstruation. Not all women have a 28-day menstruation cycle, some women have shorter or longer cycles. If birth control pills were used within the last 2 months before getting pregnant, ovulation and fertilization might not have occurred exactly in the middle of the cycle. Not all women remember the first date of their last menstruation.

 

In the seventh pregnancy week the fetuses have the same growth pace, regardless of the fact that some are weighing 4500 g at the moment of their birth and the others 2500 g. Thus during the pregnancy weeks 7-11 the due date of the birth can be most exactly set.
