First month: Dark tides

This month, the embryo has just taken shape. Most pregnant mothers don't realize they're pregnant. A small number of people experience implantation bleeding or mild abdominal pain. But because of years of routine and vacation, many people don't care.

The second month: The devastation begins

From the moment of amenorrhea to the awareness of pregnancy, it is considered lucky. Beginning this month, the early pregnancy reaction will continue to torment pregnant mothers. Specifically, such as vomiting, dizziness, oil aversion, fatigue, and great changes in taste. At this stage, due to changes in progesterone levels, pregnant mothers' moods can easily fluctuate.

Month 3: Exhausted

Morning sickness reactions continue to follow and even intensify. Some pregnant mothers are even reluctant to eat because they are afraid of morning sickness. This is certainly not advisable. In this month, pregnant mothers increase urinary frequency and secretions increase. Hormones also stimulate pregnant mothers to be exhausted and just want to sleep. They will become crying or get angry easily. Family members must pay attention to evacuation.

Fourth month: Mixed feelings

The phenomenon of early pregnancy gradually disappears, and because of the lack of a good meal for several months, pregnant mothers will suddenly have a big appetite. But it's still important to control your diet to prevent weight gain too quickly. Because of this month, the pregnant mother begins to show her pregnancy, and the body gradually becomes full, which will produce a feeling of falling and swelling. There are also cramps in the legs.

Fifth month: Bulky

Fetal weight is increasing, so is the amount of amniotic fluid. Pregnant mothers not only have a larger belly, but also increase their hips and bust circumference. During this month, pregnant mothers will feel the fetal movement. It was still relatively weak at first, but gradually strengthened in the later stage. Stretch marks gradually appear, and fetal dreams begin to appear.

Month 6: Back pain

As the pregnant belly becomes larger, the body gradually leans forward, involving the waist muscles. Later in pregnancy, calcium requirements increase, which also leads to back pain. The uterus gradually grows to the same level as the navel, and the uterus squeezes the internal organs, causing the fetus to have poor breathing and fetal movement to be more pronounced. If hemorrhoids or constipation occur, you should also pay attention to diet and eat more vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber.

Month 7: Dizziness and chest tightness

In the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, the amount of blood in pregnant mothers increases by 40%. Increased blood volume and not timely replenishment of iron can lead to physiological anemia in pregnant mothers and cause dizziness. The heart also needs to supply blood and oxygen to the pregnant mother and the fetus at the same time. If supplies are insufficient, they can also lead to dizziness or wheezing. At the same time, edema and pseudo-contractions begin to appear.

Month 8: Reduced mobility

The fetus and attachments such as amniotic fluid and placenta will hold the uterus very large. The center of gravity of the pregnant mother's body further moved forward, and the situation of back pain and leg cramps continued to worsen. Insomnia is more pronounced and can be replenished by taking naps during the day. If you go out for a walk, you must be accompanied by your family to protect your pregnant mother.

Month 9: Dietary difficulties

After 33 weeks, the fetus gains rapidly, gaining about 500 grams per week. Pregnant mothers need to strictly control their diet. If the fetus is small, nutrition needs to be supplemented to prevent the fetus from being too light and not caring. If the fetus is large, it is necessary to control the diet to avoid the appearance of macrosomia and cause obstructed childbirth. This month, the phenomenon of frequent urination in pregnant mothers is obvious. Traveling more than one hour requires advance planning. Just in case you can't find the toilet in a hurry.

October of pregnancy is the most difficult

Even if victory is in sight, pregnant mothers will have all kinds of discomfort. For example, the stomach is too heavy and the walking is unstable; things fall off, and it is difficult to pick them up. Sleep is not good, can only nap to fill the hunger. Because the fetal head is down, the pregnant mother not only has a sore back, but also a pain at the base of the thigh.

Obstetric check-ups will become weekly. If there are signs of imminent labor, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time. Vaginal or caesarean section should not be stubborn, and it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice and put the health of yourself and the fetus first.
