Pregnancy : 10 Week



Baby:
Most of the baby's joints are formed now-shoulders, elbows, wrist, hands and fingers, knees, ankles, feet and toes.
All of his organs are present and accounted for, but not fully formed or functional.
Your little one is now about as long as a paper clip and weighs the same as four paperclips, in other words: 1 ¾ inch and ¼ oz.



Mother:
Is it warm in here? Since your blood volume has increased, you may find that you feel warmer than you did previously and your veins will become more noticeable.
Moodiness is entirely normal; pregnancy causes a lot of hormonal shifts, never mind adjusting to the fact that your life will change forever with the birth of this baby.
Weight gain is pretty much a given, how much is enough and how much is too much? That depends on a lot of factors including how much you weighed when you got pregnant and how good your eating habits are. What is far more important than how much you gain is how good your eating habits are. Here is another good article on nutrition during pregnancy.



Regular moderate exercise is good for helping those mood swings. It won't cure them, but it will help to make them more bearable
