Love
since embryonic time
9 wonderful months of expectation
Get ready to welcome the best 9 months in
your life. You should know that pregnancy period is marked from the first day
of the last menstruation. Therefore, although pregnancy is usually considered
lasting till 40 weeks but in fact, the baby only grows up in your womb for 38
weeks.
First three months is the stage when you can feel clearly all the changes inside your
body. Though the embryo during this period is only a grain but the heart begins
to pump blood and most other organs have developed already, hands and feet also
start to appear. You will eventually experience a creature existing in your
body.
After the test stick gives you positive
result, you begin to feel bloated, griped lower abdomen, tired and moody.
There are some expressions which are quite
similar to earlier periods, but along with it, breasts and nipples will be more
sensitive and you will want to nauseate and urinate more. If you don’t have
those symptoms while the stick still gives you positive result, you shouldn’t
be worried because it is normal.
The next three months, you will be definitely comfortable and happy. Your baby is able to
taste gradually, beginning to comment on dishes you share with him.
Therefore, you often want this dish and
fear another one. The baby also seems to be a cute boy or girl who listens and
shows interests in mothers’ womb. Bones are formed in the end of 4th
month.
The pulse of emotion will stimulate the
brain, helping the baby feel love that parents and beloved ones show him.
Moreover, every time you are worried, angry or happy, your body will secrete
specific hormones and transmit them from mother’s blood to the fetus..
Thus, although the baby can’t understand
every word in “Baby, we’re happy for having you”, he can realize that he
is loved.
You
will have wonderful feeling during 9 months of pregnancy
You would not imagine that the miniature
fairy world is inside your body. The baby in 5th and 6th
month has grown dramatically. His skin is very thin, so there is a sticky layer
covering him to protect him.
In mother’s womb, kids have many hobbies
such as listening to music with mother, doing exercise by moving, bending,
kicking, stretching, sticking to the amniotic sac…Sometimes he is annoyed then
he frowns or sucks fingers.
The last three months will be the phase you feel closer to your baby than ever, and you
will never forget how you experience stinging pain and you will be excited when
your baby kicks your stomach.
Then, you will start feeling heavy in
cervical because your baby has turned his head down to prepare for the great
day. A secret you should know is that your baby can distinguish the voice of
mother and strangers, so don’t forget to talk a lot with him in this stage.
Please welcome him and rub your belly to
let him know that a new day has come. It’s morning talk. Tell him that you are
cooking or making the formula, because these kinds of food are very good for
you and your baby.
At night, tell your husband to talk with
the baby in or der to confide him joy and love. While the husband rubs your
belly, the baby will feel subtly about love, then he will know how to share and
love when being born.
The 8th month, everything seems
so small and cramped with the baby. Therefore, the baby turns to the left and
right, twists, kicks and punches, which sometimes make you have to wince. Your
baby’s umbilical cord brings nutrients from the fetus to the baby who is
currently 50 cm of length and 1.3 cm of thickness.
Because the baby weighs more than 3 kg and
occupies all the space in the womb, so the umbilical cord will do up in a knot
or wrap around the baby. Most substances covering on the baby’s skin disappears
as well as down.
Your body will begin to provide antibodies
for the baby through the placenta, enabling the baby’s immune system to operate
against infection during the first 6 months of life.
Wonderful 9 months pass by; your baby will
come to this life. And you become a mother! It’s the most sacred and happiest
moments in your lifetime. Feel your child lying on your belly and the umbilical
cord is cut. There is nothing better!
Nothing to worry
Experts said that you should start a healthy
pregnancy with at least 400 microgram of acid folic each day. This type of
vitamin B is considered helping prevent effects of neutral tube defects – such
as spina bifida.
However, the first 3 months are very
difficult for young mother – especially those who is pregnant for the first
time with the fear of miscarriage. Assure yourself that unless you have extreme
behaviors such as using drugs – there will no reason for you to miscarry.
In addition, to minimize the pain when the
baby kicks your abdominal wall, move more. When you move a lot, your baby will
be likely to be lulled, so he will immediately sleep. However, when you stay
still, the baby will want to be playful.
Also, the calcium amount you supplement
during pregnancy effects to the baby’s firm skull, but it is still soft and may
change a bit while you are laboring.
If your baby’s head is slightly distorted
when he is just born, you shouldn’t be worried, after several days, it will be
fine.
Finally, if you meet your baby later or
sooner than the expected day, don’t worry. In fact, there is only 5% of women
who give birth exactly on that day.
