Pregnancy Week 5 - Two Months Pregnant

You are now fully enjoying the ups and downs of pregnancy such as feeling joy while being tired. Your still tiny little baby continues to develop important organs and systems & "commubicates" with your baby via primitive placenta and umbilical cord.

 

Changes in Body:

- Still no body shape changes

- Due to energy needed for your baby's development, you may feel very tired.

- The hCG hormone is probably causing you to visit the toilet more often than usual.

- First food cravings can start haunting you - no need to fight them but be reasonable.

 

Your Baby:

- Resembles more a tadpole than a human.

- In addition to other systems and organs, heart starts developing (might be seen on ultrasound)

- The foundations of brain and spinal cord are present in the form of a neural tube.
