14 Week. Pregnancy And Childbirth

14 week

Each week of pregnancy brings surprises.

Woman

From this time on, bouts of gluttony may flood you - you will suddenly want to eat again and again, even in the middle of the night. Moreover, you may have a craving for certain foods - so the body can signal what substances it lacks. Binge eating attacks will recede only after you give birth and breastfeed your baby. In the meantime, you will have to control yourself, control nutrition, follow the recommendations for fasting days. Try to avoid strong tea and coffee.

Child

The fetus learns to "eat" with its mother: it already knows how to swallow substances dissolved in the amniotic fluid: swallowing movements are maximum in response to sweet, minimum - to sour and bitter. The child is already starting to move spontaneously. Handles touch parts of the body, the umbilical cord - "check" the reliability and strength of your house. He breathes frequently: respiratory movements occur 40 - 70 times a minute.

The baby is already producing urine and excreting it into the amniotic fluid.
