What to expect in the first trimester of pregnancy
Manage episode 381320770 series 3353565
Knowing what to expect when you're expecting makes all the difference. Midwife and antenatal educator, Grace Strange talks us through the first semester of pregnancy.
Getting pregnant is a life-changing moment, one that is literally going to change you forever. It’s interesting that in our society we wait until we are 12 weeks pregnant until we start telling people – this is the perceived ‘safe zone’. This is mostly true, your risk of having a miscarriage has significantly decreased by the time you reach the 12 week mark, but if you end up being one of the one in four women whose pregnancy ends in a miscarriage, wouldn’t you want the support of your closest friends and family? Now you might not want to announce on social media that you are pregnant at five weeks, but pregnancy, especially that first trimester, can be very overwhelming and lonely to navigate all on your own.
We look at:
I'm pregnant, now what?
Early first trimester testing
Common symptoms of the first trimester
Late first trimester testing
The realities of pregnancy and more....
