Month-by-Month Pregnancy Guide
Mother
By the end of the second month, you may begin to feel pregnant.
Your breasts may be tender, and you might be experiencing
morning sickness or nausea during the day. Don't be surprised
if you undergo some raging mood swings as well. Fatigue is
also an issue throughout the first trimester. You may be just
a bit more tired than usual, or you may be so exhausted that
four-hour naps every afternoon are the rule. Those constant
trips to the loo continue, no doubt Nature's way of training
you to wake up several times during the night in preparation
for your baby's feeding schedule!
Baby
Your unborn baby has now graduated to being called a foetus.
His internal organs are already in place and ready for further
development. If you have an ultrasound scan, you may see your
baby wiggling and waving like mad, but you won't feel anything
yet. An eight-week-old foetus already has distinct facial
features.
