The uterus will now be about an inch and a half above the belly button. The baby is in full spirits to make sure that you, even for a single minute, cannot ignore his existence inside of you. And the best way chosen by the little one is by practicing kicks and jumps and flips and flops inside your womb. The baby has gained about a quarter of a pound in weight and is almost developed by now. The child's skin is red in color and the bones are solidifying. He is getting prepared for breathing and is all set to charm you with monstrous yet cute acts.
A few expectant mothers might have encountered headaches during the first trimester of pregnancy. The issue should now have subsided. Don't be relaxed, another concern, namely, swellings in ankles and feet, will soon begin to bother you. Technically known as edema, swelling is a result of changes in blood chemistry and the excessive pressure exerted by the expanding uterus on blood veins. Drinking fluids is again the only suggestion to aid this problem. A simple yet important pregnancy tip therefore is, make huge posters with water written all over them and hang them in very corner of your house or office. Do whatever you must do to remind yourself to drink lots and lots of water during every day of pregnancy.
