Week 15 of Pregnancy: Baby’s Movements & Mama’s Energy Boost!

WEEK- 15 of Pregnancy

Intro:
Hi there, Supermom! I’m Dr. Heal, and congratulations on making it to Week 15 of your pregnancy. Today, we will dive into the changes you and your baby will expect in this 15th week of your pregnancy!

Key Information:
Your little one is already moving their arms and legs, sucking their thumb, and maybe even cracking a smile- how adorable is that! Their taste buds form, but your baby can’t taste what you eat. Your baby now looks more human with facial features and movements.
In this week, you might feel more energetic. Sex at this stage is alright as long as you don't have any health concerns such as preterm labor or placenta problems. Nosebleeds, heartburn, and indigestion are still regular occurrences at this stage. Your gums are more sensitive now, so be sure to brush and floss carefully. You might experience shortness of breath as your growing baby takes up more space, making it harder to breathe. If you’re carrying twins, you might still have some nausea, but it should ease soon.

Conclusion:
Prioritize your health by scheduling a dental checkup if needed, and rest when you can to avoid headaches and aches. Start sleeping on your side to improve blood flow and if you ever feel unsure or have any concerns, connect with an Apollo doctor online or join our community to chat with other moms-to-be! You’ve got this supermom!
