What will happen if you are two months pregnant?

In fact, for some female friends who are pregnant for the first time, it is very unfamiliar. They don’t know what to do and what not to do during pregnancy. It is very contradictory. In the first two months of pregnancy, they don’t know what kind of reaction is considered normal. Let us understand what kind of reaction will occur in the second month of pregnancy.

Main manifestations:

Early pregnancy

The embryo undergoes dramatic changes in development at this time. About half of women experience morning sickness at this time (and only at this time).

Fertilization

Before pregnancy can begin, the egg must first meet the sperm and be fertilized. Most fertilization occurs after the male ejaculates inside the female. Current technology also allows artificial insemination in vitro fertilization.

Implantation

Medically speaking, pregnancy begins when the embryo implants in the endometrium. Sometimes, due to complications, the embryo implants in the fallopian tube or cervix, causing a pregnancy outside the uterus (ectopic pregnancy). Implantation usually has no signs or symptoms, although there have been cases of mild bleeding during implantation. The outer layer of the embryo will grow into the placenta, which receives nutrients from the uterine wall. The umbilical cord connects the newborn to the placenta.

Although medically, pregnancy begins at implantation, the expected date of delivery is generally calculated using the "Naegele's Rule": the last menstrual period (LMP) plus 40 weeks (280 days). A fetus born before 37 weeks is considered premature, and after 43 weeks is considered post-term. However, the length of pregnancy varies depending on many factors. For example, the first child usually takes longer.

The exact date of conception is important because many prenatal tests are based on this date. Whether or not to induce labor is also determined by this date. Because women's menstrual cycles vary in length, ovulation may not necessarily occur on the 14th day. Therefore, the due date can only be roughly estimated. About 3.6% of women gave birth on the estimated due date based on menstruation, and 4.7% of women gave birth on the estimated due date based on ultrasound diagnosis.

Early pregnancy

The fetus grows and develops very quickly in the mother's body. In the first 8 weeks of pregnancy, the fertilized egg develops from a single cell into a formed human body with 200 million cells. This period is called an embryo; after 8 weeks of pregnancy, it is called a fetus.

At 6 weeks of pregnancy, the embryo's spine and brain begin to form, and the heart begins to beat. B-ultrasound can measure the activity of the embryo and heart. At this time, the pregnant woman may have early pregnancy reactions. After 7 weeks, limbs begin to form. After 8 weeks, the embryo has eyes, but no face or external auditory canal; the embryo begins to move, but the pregnant woman cannot feel it yet. At 12 weeks, the fetus is about 7 cm long and weighs 20 grams. It has a human shape and its head appears larger than other parts of the body. The fetal heart rate can be heard using a Doppler stethoscope. The fundus of the uterus can be felt above the pubic symphysis through the abdomen.

The above article gives you a detailed introduction to the specific reactions of two months of pregnancy. I believe everyone has a relatively preliminary understanding. Therefore, in daily life, pregnant women should pay more attention to their eating habits and living habits, ensure adequate sleep, and not stay up late.
