Everybody knows that during the pregnancy the biggest concern of the parents is that the mother and the baby to be healthy, this is the most important thing. During the pregnancy the woman is subjected to many different tests to examine her state of health and the one of the baby. Besides the basic tests that the pregnant woman take she also wants to know as many things as possible about the baby and his development. Pregnancy wheel is a personal pregnancy calculator and fetal development chart. The pregnancy wheel is a complex conveniently sized (8”x6”) gestational wheel designed to calculate the due date of the baby, explain what physical symptoms and fetal changes happened during the pregnancy period. The 8’x6’ sized wheel contains also: useful general information about the development of the pregnancy and about symptoms that appear each month, information about the fetal growth week by week.
When the positive result of the pregnancy test is confirmed the woman’s mind in invaded by thousands of questions about the pregnancy due date, about the medical tests that she has to do, about the gender of the baby, about the method of birth, about physical changes that her body will suffer, by the development step by step of the baby inside her womb, and many, many other questions regarding this subject. The principal on witch the due date of pregnancy of the pregnancy wheel is calculated is the Naegele Rule. Naegele was a German obstetrician who first developed the standard pregnancy period of 40 weeks. According to his principle the pregnancy of the woman should last 10 lunar months or 280 days, he calculates the due pregnancy date using the first day of the last woman’s period as a starting point , then considered the conception as happening 2 weeks later and the real period of the pregnancy as 38 weeks or 266 days, meaning 8 and ½ calendar months. So, one week after conception the woman is, in fact in the third week of the pregnancy. Today many health care practitioners and gynecologists use this method for calculating the pregnancy due date. The principle of Naegele’s Rule is simple and logical meaning the pregnancy due date is 9 months + 7 days (after the first day of the last period) or simply calculate 280 days after the first day of the last period.
The pregnancy wheel helps you to calculate automatically and more easily the date of the birth of you baby. The pregnancy wheel has 2 indicator arrows, when the first indicator arrow is positioned on the first day of the last period, the other indicator arrow is positioned on the expected due date. Is as simple as that! The information about the symptoms of the mother during the pregnancy, about the development and growth of the baby week by week are illustrated. The pregnancy e-wheel – is an ideal substitute for the manual pregnancy wheel and estimates the measurements of the fetal.
