The 10th week of pregnancy is not much different from the previous period. Its main feature, however, is that almost all women undergo toxicosis. This indicates that one of the quietest periods begins, as the unpleasant sensations are left behind, the belly does not interfere freely and habitually move, and the baby is about to start declaring himself a pleasant stir.
On the 10th obstetric week of pregnancy, the sensations of a woman may differ. In fact, the baby is at an earlier time of fetal development, which may differ by 7-21 days from the midwife period in the case of early or late ovulation, which is the reason for some possible discrepancies in what the expectant mother may feel.
Feelings of a woman at 10 weeks gestation
At 9-10 weeks of pregnancy, the sensations of a future mother are as follows:
- since the uterus occupies almost the entire pelvic region and presses on the bladder, there may be frequent urge to urinate and even soreness;
- the volume of circulating blood in the body increases significantly, and therefore the load on the heart increases, which can also be felt pregnant;
- during pregnancy on the 10-11th week, sensations can also include heartburn, heaviness in the stomach, problems with stools.
In the period under consideration, a woman should eat well, have more rest, spend a light foot massage to avoid varicose veins. In addition, you need to be as little as possible in crowded places to prevent infection by any infectious disease, despite the fact that the risk of miscarriage is already minimal.
