The greatest news that a couple may receive is that the women is pregnant and that soon, approximately in 9 months they are going to have a biological child. 9 months may appear as a long period of time, but it isn’t so. The women need to have patience and enjoy every stage of the pregnancy, every new symptom, every new feeling that she will experience. Some women pass to the pregnancy period without feeling sick and other women need to reduce the physical activity in order to keep the baby and to be able to give birth safely. But, despite all the little inconveniences caused by the pregnancy period, all women will say that is probably the most beautiful experience that they’ve ever lived. After she finds out that she is pregnant, the future mother is curious and eager to find out as much information as possible about what will happen later during the pregnancy period ( and after, of course) with her and with the baby.
The pregnancy period is divided in 3 stages of pregnancy, known as pregnancy trimesters (first, second and third trimester), each characterized by certain symptoms, development stages of the baby and changes of the mother’s body.
Now, let’s see what happens during the three pregnancy trimesters.
First trimester of pregnancy – the first pregnancy symptoms that women experience are the missed period, the swelling breasts and the unexplained tiredness. When the woman is convinced that she is really pregnant after the visit to the doctor she will enjoy fully without any doubts the good news. During the first trimester of pregnancy the woman will experience mood changes, nausea and vomiting, frequent urination and other symptoms or non, it depends on every woman. In this pregnancy stage the doctor will prescribe you some vitamins and will advise what diet to fallow for the proper development of the baby. Is unusual to gain weight during the first pregnancy trimester, but you will notice your abdomen begin to distend a bit.
Second trimester of pregnancy – through this pregnancy trimester the baby will grow rapidly, witch will give you more energy than usual. Because of the energy that they have during this period many women will try to clean, to cook, to set up the nursery, but they have to be careful not to hurt themselves, not to lift heavy things, not to climb to clean or arrange the high areas.
In this period the women will experience cravings, but they should keep in mind that they need to have a healthy diet that will help them after the labor to lose weight easily. The gestational diabetes is common in pregnancy, that’s why it is recommended to take a glucose test during this pregnancy period, because unchecked it may cause problems for both mother and baby.
Third trimester of pregnancy – in this period you will realize more and more the joy that the baby will take part of your life. By this stage the baby is fully developed, now he is only gaining size and weight to become strong and healthy. The baby’s brain develops more during this stage, and the baby’s lungs begin to practice for taking that first breath. The baby will start to feel the need for room and you will feel his movements more strong and less frequently, in the last week you may not feel his movements as much, because the baby will prepare for the big entrance into the world.
After the three trimesters the baby will come into the world and will end the pregnancy.
