BABYCENTRE UPDATES...12 WEEKS



I ada la subscribe satu website ni tuk dpt kan info terutama ketika 1st trimester ni..so dia akan email la tetiap minggu inform apa yang akan berlaku minggu tu..so minggu ni apa dia inform..


You are now 12 weeks pregnant (or in your 13th week if that's how you prefer to count it).

Your baby is about 5.4cm long from her crown to her rump and weighs slightly less than 14g. The big news this week is that your baby's reflexes are becoming more honed. She'll squirm if you prod your belly, although you probably can't feel her moving around yet. Fetal nerve cells have been multiplying rapidly and the neurological connections in her brain (synapses) are forming. She can close her fingers, curl her toes and clench her eye muscles.

All the while, your baby's face is beginning to look more human. Her eyes, which started out on the sides of her head, have moved closer together. Her ears are almost in their final positions on the side of her head. Inside her body, her organs are performing more complex tasks. Her liver is making bile and her kidneys are secreting urine into her bladder.

Your midwife can now feel the top of your uterus (womb), also known as the fundus, low in your belly. As you enter the second trimester, you may need to wear looser clothing. Soon you won't be able to fit into your old clothes any more.

It's never too soon to start doing your pelvic floor exercises. A strong pelvic floor will protect you against urine leaks, and help with labour and birth when the time comes.

You may now find that once the sickness feeling has passed, your appetite returns. Find out how to eat well over the next few weeks. And if you're wondering how often you'll need to see your midwife or GP, take a look at our antenatal appointments scheduler.

Note from Babycentre: Every baby develops differently. This page is designed to give a general idea of how a fetus grows in the uterus
