For you
- 💧Your partner is going through a period of intense physical changes that may make her feel tired or dizzy. Make sure she always has a bottle of water nearby and help her with daily chores so she doesn't have to get up suddenly.
- 🧘Hormonal changes affect her mood. Show understanding, offer a hug, and suggest a relaxing walk together. Your presence and emotional support are the best gifts right now.
For your baby
- 🦶This week, your little one completes the embryonic stage and transitions to the fetal period. The small tail at the base of the spine has disappeared and the fingers are no longer webbed.
- 💓Your baby's heart is now fully formed and beating strongly, about two to three times faster than your own. Also, vital organs such as the liver and kidneys are beginning to function.
💡 Fun Fact
Although it is still too early to feel it, your baby is already starting to make its first jerky movements and bend its tiny elbows!
🏆 Milestones
Completion of the most critical phase of organ development and the beginning of the fetal period.
