Pregnancy Week 7: Signs And Symptoms

This week nausea strikes and will probably be at its peak! In most cases it settles in the next six to eight weeks. While a few expecting moms feel nauseous all through the nine months, there are some who do not experience any nausea at all!

Another important symptom is frequent visits to the washroom, thanks to the increase in your blood volume and the extra fluid being processed through your kidneys. Remember, peeing more than usual is no reason to reduce your fluid intake! Make sure you keep yourself hydrated as it aids digestion and maintains amniotic fluid levels.

Try sipping on fresh lime juice, chaas or coconut water to increase your nutrient intake as well.
