Eating

Filed under: First Trimester, Pregnancy — Premalatha @ 2:40 pm

I am eating all the time. Atleast munching on something all the time. I used to be on coffee 24hrs before pregnancy, but now since I had to reduce it, it is something or other munching all the time. Not just the coffee craving alternative munching, but I am feeling hungry all the time in general. I know they say it is just 200 extra grams of food is all that is required for the other person  growing inside me, but i am hungry all the time and I am munching all the time. I don’t seem to have gained weight either!

How are you doing?

The stomach pains have gone without notice.

  1. But have sever back pain these days.
  2. Heavily bloated.
  3. Sometime constipation problems.

Tips:

  1. I chew fennel seeds after food or anytime when I feel like it.
  2. I drink mint tea (Add crushed mint leaves in tea and filter it out). Fennel seeds or the mint or together they seem to have helped to cure problem #3.
  3. I carry a cushion around to support my back.

Otherwise I feel a lot better than previous weeks.

The little one

Filed under: First Trimester, Pregnancy — Premalatha @ 6:49 am

Entering 9th week

This is an exciting week for your embryo, which is now officially recognised as a foetus, which means “little one”.  

Your baby’s heart has four chambers and the liver is producing red blood cells……..

The face is very human looking although the eyelids are still closed tightly over the developing eyes. The hands can bend at the wrist and the feet begin to lose their webbed appearance. Your baby is very active, already moving his arms and legs, although you can’t yet feel the movements.
