Week 8

How special was it to see your baby for the first time? See the heart beating? The idea that a baby is growing in your belly has now become a lot more real. Did you know that the chance of having a miscarriage after seeing a beating heart and a well-developed baby has decreased from 10% to 1-3%? If you are still worried or have blood loss, you can always contact us. You can suffer from various ailments. Many women suffer from constipation during pregnancy because your intestines slow down due to the hormone Progesterone. Very annoying and because of this you can already have a swollen belly (especially in the evening)! Try to move for at least 30 minutes every day, drink enough and get plenty of fiber.

Your baby is now the size of a blueberry and can start moving for the first time this week. Because the baby is still so small, you can’t feel the movements yet, but you could already see them on an ultrasound.
