"Learning from First Trimester".
What happens to a woman’s body during the first trimester?
In the first trimester, a woman’s body goes through many changes. The body releases hormones that affect almost every single organ in the body. The first sign you may be pregnant is missing a period. As the first few weeks pass, some women experience the following:
tiredness

upset stomach

throwing up

mood swings

tender breasts

heartburn

weight gain

headaches

cravings for certain foods

revulsion to certain foods

constipation
You may need to rest more or eat smaller meals during this time. Some women, however, don’t feel any of these symptoms at all.
What happens to the fetus during the first trimester?
The first day of your pregnancy is also the first day of your last menstrual period. At about 10 to 14 days after, an egg is released, combines with a sperm, and conception occurs. A baby develops rapidly during the first trimester. The fetus begins to develop a brain and spinal cord, and the organs begin to form. The baby’s heart will also begin to beat during the first trimester.
Arms and legs begin to bud in the first few weeks, and by the end of eight weeks, fingers and toes start to form. By the end of the first trimester, the baby’s sex organs have formed.
