<\/figure>\n\n\n\nEmbryo Formation: Tiny Cells Start Growing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In week 3 of pregnancy, fertilization is complete and the first steps are taken for your baby to grow. The fertilized egg begins its journey to your uterus, where a miracle happens. These cells begin to multiply rapidly to form the embryo. It may not look like a baby yet, but this tiny cluster of cells will be your tiny miracle in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Can You Feel?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Most women don’t even realize that they are pregnant this week because the signs of pregnancy may not have really started yet. However, some mothers may notice signs such as tender breasts<\/a>, mild cramps<\/a>or tiredness<\/a>. If you find out that you are pregnant this week, you will most likely have a lot to look forward to before the test results come back positive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This week the embryo is still very small, microscopic and developing rapidly. The fertilized egg passes through the tubes before reaching your uterus, during which time the cells divide rapidly. Your baby’s genetic code is also determined this week; features such as eye color, hair color and height are already starting to form! <\/p>\n\n\n\n From this week onwards, your uterus prepares to welcome the embryo. Your uterine wall starts to thicken to provide the ideal environment for the embryo to implant. Hormones play an important role in this process and you will start to feel the effects of these hormones more and more in the coming weeks. The hormone progesterone relaxes the uterine muscles and helps the embryo to attach in a healthy way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n During this period, expectant mothers begin to experience both physical and emotional changes. Fathers can make a big difference by showing love and understanding to their wives during this period. Making small surprises and making her feel that you support her will make this period more comfortable and happy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The first weeks of pregnancy can be exciting and full of unknowns. Remember, every moment of this process is a journey that strengthens your bond with your baby. Learning a little more each week and following the development of your little miracle will motivate you even more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Many women may not realize that they are pregnant this week because the symptoms may not have fully started yet. Some women may feel early signs such as mild cramps, tiredness or breast tenderness, but these are usually not very noticeable. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Yes, some early pregnancy tests can give results this week, but for most tests, waiting a few more days will give you more accurate results. Testing after your period is late will give more accurate results. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n This week the embryo is microscopic and too small to be seen on ultrasound. However, as cell division is happening rapidly, the growth process has already started. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Warning. If you haven’t already, it is very important to start taking folic acid in the 3rd week of your pregnancy. Folic acid plays a critical role in the development of your baby’s nervous system and spine. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Unfortunately, this week the embryo is not yet big enough to be seen on ultrasound. The first ultrasound is usually done at 6-8 weeks of pregnancy, and then you can even hear your baby’s heartbeat. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n It is safe to do light exercise during these early stages of your pregnancy. However, be careful not to tire yourself and consult your doctor before starting a new exercise program. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Welcome to week 3 of pregnancy!
