The third month of pregnancy is characterized to some extent by a turning point. New organs and tissues are formed, as well as the placenta, through which the child now receives nutrients. Consider the important changes that occur with the mother and with the baby in the three months of pregnancy, the photo is attached.
Baby in 3 months of pregnancy.
The one who was the embryo is already a fruit and more like a little man: he no longer has a tail, and the limbs and face are almost formed. Internal organs also function. The skin of the fetus is wrinkled and red, but there is no hair yet.
The eyes are already able to close, because the eyelids are formed, and it has lobes of the ears. The mouth is already able to open and close, thanks to the working muscles of the mouth. Marigolds grow on fully formed fingers. Moreover, at this stage, sexual differentiation is already beginning.
It is very important that the fetus can actively move at the expense of sufficiently developed muscles. He even can swallow, and his excretory system also works.
One of the key points is that the liver and spleen begin to produce blood, this method of hematopoiesis (fetal) is preserved until delivery.
The fruit weighs about 20 grams with an increase of about 6 .5 cm.
Mom in the third month of pregnancy.
Good news: by the 12th week, toxicosis usually stops! Unpleasant sensations before that were caused by the fact that a yellow body formed on the place of the ripe oocyte, which was responsible for the production of the necessary hormones. Now this is the placenta.
The breast swells, the nipples darken, painful sensations appear.
The uterus gradually increases and slightly protrudes above the pubic bone.
More rare than at the beginning of pregnancy, urge to urinate.
The work of the intestine slows down, so constipation is not ruled out.
Circulation of blood in the body causes increased work of the heart, lungs and kidneys.
Excitability and irritability persist.
Adding weight at this stage is optional, usually it is noticeable, only from the second trimester.
Three months of pregnancy: important changes.
A woman, pregnant for the first time, may not notice that the fetus has started moving.
The bone system is formed: at the points of ossification the cartilage starts to harden and turns into bone.
Endocrine glands also begin to work: pituitary is pawned and the development of a small amount of hormones begins, the thyroid gland declares itself.
At 9-12 weeks, the adrenal glands begin to produce a male sex hormone - testosterone, under the influence of which the boys at this time are forming testicles.
Thrush.
The third month's problem may be candidiasis. Candida fungi live in the body of a woman, but manifest under certain conditions, for example, severe stress, immunity glitches and hormonal alteration.
The disease is accompanied by itching and curdled discharge, which causes discomfort. The doctor, most likely, will appoint vaginal preparations.
Useful advice.
If you are used to doing sports, pregnancy is not a reason to throw. For pregnant women walking and walking outdoors, swimming, as well as exercises specially designed for pregnant women will do.
Since the fetus, as described above, has already fully formed as a little man, the mother can communicate with him: stroking the belly, talking, singing. Positive emotions change the chemical composition of the blood, so the fruit will surely feel your love. Therefore, stress should be avoided, because he will also feel it.
Examine the chest. If it appeared a bluish mesh of veins, it's time to select a quality bra that will support the mammary glands.
In case of constipation, do not rush to take medication, in this case, you should first consult with your doctor. You can try home remedies, for example, stir a dessert spoonful of honey in 100-150 ml of warm boiled water and drink on an empty stomach. In addition, you need to take the food choice seriously, because while some of them (prunes, sea kale) will help with constipation, others will cause the opposite effect.
As already mentioned, regular consultations with a gynecologist are necessary. However, you can remember about other doctors. For example, take care of your teeth now, while there is still time.
