Second Trimester | 3D Animated Pregnancy Guide

Congratulations! Now that you’re in the second trimester, there is a lot to look forward to! Highlights might include finding out your baby's sex and feeling your baby move for the first time. Lasting from week 14 to week 27, the second trimester of pregnancy is often thought of as the best part of pregnancy. For many people, morning sickness and fatigue from the first trimester go away at this point. The fetus continues developing during this trimester - adding weight and taking on the features of a newborn. You’ll have an ultrasound during the second trimester to make sure the fetus is developing as it should.

[@annamaepalad7702]

i have pcos . I was diagnosed since i was 18 years old . I got married when im 20 , and since then im trying to concieve . But i already started to accept that i will no longer be pregnant because i already had a thyroid problem . Both causes infertility. But with the miracle of GOD , I don't really knew that when my menstruation was delayed , i was already pregnant by that time. I don't expect that to happened since im use of being irregular. I went on check up and knew that my tummy was already 5 months 😄 . The first time I saw him/her on ultrasound he/she's already have hands and feet. Now im praying to GOD for a safe delivery and keep my baby healty and safe also inside my tummy 🙏🥰♥️ . Hope every girl who have infertility issue please don't lose hope . There will always be a miracle

I’m on my 14th weeks now 3rd baby. My eldest is 15, second is 10. It’s been 10 years now I feel like it’s my first time to get pregnant again. 😅 I remember first baby I was young and weak. I passed out 4x during my whole pregnancy . I didn’t know I was pregnant with my first born til she was 4 months inside my belly. I know sound naive but yes I was back then. I remember tons of food cravings with my first born, severe morning sickness yet still didn’t realize I was pregnant. With my second child I don’t remember much with my second born but I know for certain he didn’t caused me tons of cravings, no passing out. Craving was less. Smooth pregnancy I would say. Now after 10 years I’m having my third pregnancy and this pregnancy is like literally nothing. No symptoms, No cravings , like I’m no pregnant at all other than my belly is growing fast. I’m doing more regular exercise now and more good vitamins than my first two kids coz now we’re able to afford good supplements, also now I’m educating myself more through watching videos. I still aim to continue to deliver this healthy Angel normally like my first two. God is good.

Google it. I think it means blood flow in the right heart chambers may be restricted, some sources say if it’s mild there is no concern, some sources say it might go away later on in pregnancy, while other more concerning sources suggest it might hint cardiac problems - best to check with your midwife or Dr.

From 30g to 820 grams. At week 13, ears and eyes have developed. Arms will lenghten to be propotionate to body. Ambilical cord is developed and protected via wharton's jelly and as for girl thousands of ovaries are forming in her body. Baby can now taste food u eat via amniotic fluid. You'll feel movement by week 19. By week 20 he can hear sounds and ultrasound is performed and gender reveal. At 23, functions will develop ie pain breathing etc. Lungs are developing and the surfactant to inhale air after birth. Your body will experience 6kgs more weight and skin tearing and stretch marks.

[@butterghee3897]

It’s very early, if it’s second baby normally you would feel kicks around 16weeks. For first pregnancy it might be between 20-24weeks. Kicks may not be consistent and as strong since baby is still small. After week 28 kicks should be more frequent and perhaps more stronger, but check with a Dr if concerned about kicks. Not online Drs but the ones that can arrange scans for you.

I feel dizziness especially when i stand up; i cant control my body when standing even when i turn my eyes. I thought maybe its hypotension (low blood pressure). Concerning my food , i eat well as i think but i m suffering of the lack of sleeping, some nights i dont sleep at all. Sorry doctor, i have other question concerning peeing. I pee so so so much (this is a reason for not sleeping) . I sometimes hold my pee till i feel such a pain. Am i hurting the baby by this? Thanks for your time Dr

[@deborahajisafe1400]

I hope she would reply soon.. I also need answers to your first complaint. But the pee part, it's normal for every pregnant women cos the bby weight is putting pressure on the bladder as they grow bigger and move. So pls, pee as often as u can,don't hold it, it's dangerous but not sure about being harmful to the BBY though
