PREGNANCY STAGES

PREGNANCY STAGES

Pregnancy stages are the three trimesters during which your baby progresses from an embryo to fetus, to the time it is born as a recognizable tiny human. Pregnancy trimester is divided into three stages of three month each, which is the first trimester, the second trimester and the third semester.

The First Trimester

The first trimester is a strange time. During the first trimester, your baby is growing at a tremendous rate. You also may look pretty much like the same woman who is not pregnant. But your body is going trough changes faster. Hormones are firing away and all sorts of other chemical are doing your stuff. The resulting side effects are varied, not only from woman to woman, but for each individual woman from hour to hour.

The second Trimester

The second trimester is the kind of temporary return to near normal. It’s the proverbial calm before the explosion. One cool thing does occur in the second trimester: you can actually feel your baby. The baby makes its presence known through kicking. The second trimester is also the time that many expecting mothers will undergo ultrasound. Ultrasound is taking pictures with sound waves.

The Third Trimester

This is the last trimester of pregnancy stages. The third trimester brings more of the same-only worse. First off, sitting down will be an effort for you and something that is impossible to do gracefully.

Once you have traveled trough all the stages of pregnancy, you will begin a brand new chapter in your life as a mother. Though the journey may seem long and hard, enjoy it as much as you can. All of the pains that you are happened will be well worth the struggle. The amazing growth and development of the baby within just a few months is one of the greatest miracles of motherhood.
