Fetal size
After more than three months of pregnancy, the fetus has grown to the size of a small tomato. The fetus at this time is about 9.4 cm long and weighs about 40 grams. The fetus begins to have outlines and limbs. The head is longer than the body, and the shape of the hands and feet is more obvious. At this time, the fetus is not fully developed, but the basic shape has been formed. Medically, this period is called the embryonic period, which is the initial stage of fetal development. At this time, the fetus needs adequate nutrition from the mother, so pregnant women need to pay attention to ensuring a healthy diet and living habits.
Notes
Pregnant women must pay special attention to the following aspects during the first three months of pregnancy:
1. Eat healthy. A fetus in three months of pregnancy needs adequate nutrition from the mother. Pregnant women should pay attention to a balanced diet and eat more protein, vitamins, calcium, iron and other high-nutrient foods, such as chicken, eggs, milk, tofu, etc.
2. Life rules. Pregnant women should ensure adequate sleep, take appropriate activities in the morning and evening, and maintain a happy mood. Do not stay up late, overeat, overwork your body, smoke or drink alcohol, etc.
3. Regular inspections. Regular prenatal check-ups should be carried out during pregnancy to detect and deal with problems in a timely manner. Pregnant women need to follow the doctor\’s advice and complete various examinations such as blood routine, urine routine, B-ultrasound, etc., and pay attention to pre-pregnancy genetic counseling.
Early embryonic development
During the embryonic period, the fetus\’s brain, nervous system, respiratory system, circulatory system and other organs are gradually developing. At this time, the fetal heart also begins to beat and becomes stronger and stronger, and the digestive tract organs such as the liver and stomach are also slowly taking shape. Unfortunately, since pregnant women cannot directly observe the development of their fetus, regular check-ups during pregnancy have become increasingly important.
Tips for giving birth to a healthy baby
During the third month of pregnancy, pregnant mothers must pay attention to giving birth to a healthy baby. Pregnant mothers can rest assured that by maintaining healthy living habits and dietary patterns, women can in most cases avoid unnecessary complications during pregnancy.
