Your Baby
Changes In Your Growing Baby By pregnancy 10 weeks your baby has reached an important developmental milestone. While it is still important that you avoid any potential toxins throughout your pregnancy week by week, you can rest a little easier knowing your baby has past the most critical stage where congenital malformations are most likely. Keep in mind that exposure to common toxins included second hand smoke is still very harmful during pregnancy. If at all possible avoid environments that may expose you and your baby to harmful substances (like second hand smoke). Don't hesitate to express our needs if you find yourself in a precarious position. Most people will bend over backwards to accommodate the needs of a pregnant woman. By pregnancy week 10 your baby's organ systems are developing fully. Tissues are forming in the kidney, liver, heart and intestines. Within the next three weeks these organ systems will undergo amazing developments. Your baby will also start growing details, like fuzzy hair and toenails! By the end of pregnancy at 10 weeks your baby will also start swallowing and may even start kicking (though you won't be feeling those precious first kicks yet!).
Your Body's Development
Changes In Your Body By pregnancy week 10 you may have heard your baby's heartbeat for the first time at your doctors office. Many fist time moms describe the sound of their baby's heartbeat as similar to galloping horses. Don't fret however if you haven't heard this yet, by 12 weeks pregnant most women will have heard their baby's heartbeat on a Doppler for the first time.
If your partner hasn't accompanied you to your prenatal visits yet consider inviting him in the future. This will help your partner get acquainted with your doctor, the birthing process and help him bond with you and the baby during your pregnancy. While your partner may not admit it most enjoy being helpful and participating even in run of the mill office visits during your pregnancy. Your partner will also have the opportunity to address any questions or concerns he has about the pregnancy or about being a father with your doctor.
