Pregnancy, motherhood: pregnancy and child care

Pregnancy is a several-month process of major changes in a woman's body. Some changes bring unpleasant sensations and pain, but with proper preparation they can be at least partially avoided.

In the 9th week of pregnancy, the pregnancy hormone HCG is at its peak. This causes the strongest symptoms in the form of morning sickness, mood changes, heartburn and fatigue.

Even if your pregnancy is not yet visible on the outside, big changes are happening in your body. The same is true for your baby, who is in constant rapid development. You can read how your baby is developing this week in our article.

Your baby is still tiny, but it has already formed almost all its organs. From this week on, we no longer look at it as an embryo. But it is already becoming a fetus that will grow and develop until birth.

Your baby already looks like a little person. The embryonic stage is complete and from this week onwards your baby is considered a fetus. All the baby's organs have formed during the embryonic stage. Now they will only grow and mature.

In the last three weeks your baby has doubled in size, growing at a very fast rate. He is already measuring approximately 5-6 cm from the top of his head to his tailbone.

You've only recently found out you're pregnant. You're already 13 weeks pregnant. The fetus is beginning a period of rapid growth. Your belly is starting to protrude and round out.

This period of pregnancy is considered by most expectant mothers to be the most pleasant. Gradually, nausea subsides, energy returns and the tummy takes on the right pregnancy curves.

The second trimester is in full swing. Is it possible to predict the sex with certainty? We will reveal what changes are taking place, but also other interesting facts.

At 16 weeks of pregnancy, you are almost halfway through the journey called pregnancy. There are more examinations to come. There may be some difficulties caused by pregnancy. Which ones are they?

You are slowly tipping into the fifth month of pregnancy. What is waiting for you in the 17th week? Is it okay if you can't feel your baby kicking yet?

At this time, the future mom is becoming more and more aware and feels life under the heart. The baby is already making itself known. Do you know what awaits you in this period?

You haven't felt your baby move yet? Don't worry. It's coming soon. You may experience leg cramps and sleep disturbances. What about sports during pregnancy?

The 20th week of pregnancy is here. Morning sickness is probably no longer bothering you. You can enjoy a pleasant period of pregnancy with a growing tummy that does not yet restrict you.

You are 21 weeks pregnant, you have just entered the second half of your pregnancy. Your baby is growing at a great speed. If he is not sleeping, he is already restless and always on the move at this time.

The child sleeps less and moves more during the day. When he wakes up, he is very active and makes his movements known.

The baby is growing and you are becoming more and more aware of its movements. In a few weeks, your whole tummy will be moving as your baby does acrobatic stunts and somersaults in the womb.

The foetus grows and gains strength, and you feel its movements more and more. It alternates between periods of sleep and activity. It may happen that the baby stays in one position for several hours.

Your belly is rounded and bulging outwards. The baby is comfortable in your belly, growing in it, gaining weight and making his movements known. He is responding to your movements, to touches and sounds. His nostrils are opening this week and his lungs are beginning a new phase of development.

Are you experiencing emotions of joy and anticipation of the baby's arrival? Although the fetus is already fully developed, it still needs time for proper lung and brain development during intrauterine life.
