WEEK- 4 of Pregnancy
Intro:
Welcome to Week 4 of pregnancy, Supermom! I’m Dr. <name>, and I’m here to explain the key changes happening in your body this week!
Key Information:
At 4 weeks pregnant, your baby is smaller than a poppy seed- practically microscopic. Your baby, who’s now an embryo, has implanted itself into the lining of your uterus. The placenta, an organ that supplies oxygen and nutrients to your baby, is also forming to provide the essential nutrients your baby needs to grow!
You might notice some early pregnancy signs like a missed period, mild cramping, or light blood spotting on your panties as your body adjusts. Your hormones are starting to rise, which could cause tender breasts, nausea, or even fatigue. As you go through these changes, it’s important to take care of yourself. Eat a balanced diet rich in fibre, minerals Vitamins, and proteins. Gentle exercise, like walking, can help keep your body active and energized, but listen to your body and don’t push yourself too hard.
Conclusion:
Keep focusing on self-care, take it easy when you need to, and reach out to our Apollo doctors and community if you ever have any questions or need support. You’ve got this supermom!
