size of uterus will increase. There is not increase to much at uterus cell,
but the grow will take much longer. Oestrogens will stimulate the growth and
expanding baby also the volume of fluid will stimulate stretching. The grow
up of uterine cells up to twenty times at normal length while pregnancy. That
why, after pregnancy finish, the size will not return as normal again. The flow
of blood through the uterine blood vessels will increase in term every minute
about 1 litre blood flows.
Placenta Change During Pregnancy
Placenta is the organ of respiration, nutrition and also the excretion for
baby. The placenta will produce hormones for give protection for baby from mother's
immune system rejection and also maternal wellbeing.
It will take seventieth days for placenta to developed after ovulation. The
weight average 1 kg. It is the age while pregnancy and after forty weeks will
functioning gradually deteriorates. The age will tendency faster for diabetic
women.
Usually placentas are attached at upper part from the uterus but some attach
lower down at the uterus and this can cause the problems. It can lead bleeding
in later pregnancy and also may complicate delivery if it obstructs opening
of the womb. It can be detected using ultrasound scan. At the early pregnancy,
the scan often show a low lying placenta, but because the uterus size increases,
the placenta moves upwards in most cases. If the placenta is low but doesn't
cover opening for the womb a normal labour may be possible with close monitoring.
However, if the placenta covers or also partially covers the opening, delivery
will have to be by caesarean section.
Amniotic Fluid Change During Pregnancy
The future baby's cells at early pregnancy will produced amniotic fluid. At
10 weeks, the volume is about 30ml, after 20 week it become 300ml, after 30
weeks about 600ml. At 38 weeks, it can be about 800 until 100mls. Baby will
swallows amniotic fluid and also excretes it by its kidneys. It only get problem
if there is get insufficient or excessive fluid.
Oligohydramnios is when there is too little fluid, (less than
200 mls). This is rare and associated with prolonged pregnancy, prolonged ruptured
membranes, placental problems and kidney problems in the baby.
Polyhydramnios is means too much fluid (2-3 litres). This
can be associated with abnormalities in the baby, multiple pregnancy, or maternal
diabetes. In 30% of cases no cause is found and a perfectly healthy baby is
born.
Breasts Change During Pregnancy
Breasts are seen as sexual object for most of adult lives. But when we are
at the first time of pregnant, the woman will see that only half the story.
The breast will change and the woman feelings towards them change too as they're
seen merely such means of nourishing for baby. It may uncomfortable, delighted,
or embarrassed when the small breasts suddenly blossom. What if the pregnancy
woman decide to breastfeed? What will people think if the woman feed in the
tearoom of as department store? At the real condition, it is very possible to
breastfeed very discreetly at public places, but that does not stop many women
feeling awkward and vulnerable .
The breasts begin to develop in puberty and the size and shape will vary from
one woman to other woman. Even you are go ing to breastfeed or not, the breasts
will change while pregnancy, this is the preparation for producing milk.
At the early time of pregnancy, maybe even you don't know that you are pregnant,
the breasts will start became feel larger and also heavier. The breasts also
become more sensitive and tender for the milk producing cells and milk ducts
develop. The blood supply for the breast will increases and the areola will
become darker. The breasts bear size have no relation for the amount of the
milk make. Some of women will notice only a slight increase in size while pregnancy
whereas the others find they need a new size of bra virtually every month. Average,
about 36 weeks, most women will have to gone up a dress size and a cup size,
maybe from 36B to a 38C. Because the breasts grow while pregnancy, it is important
to change the bra so that you continue to get good support. Sports bras are
ideal to provide good support without wiring, which some women find uncomfortable.
You can also be measured for a nursing the bra from about 36 weeks, do not expect
the height of fashion.
When does the milk start to come in?
The important part for providing milk for new baby is play by two hormones.
Prolactin will triggers milk production and oxytocin will causes the milk glands
to contract, forcing milk into the ducts. This leads to the let down reflex
which some women will feel as a tingling sensation or mild ache down the outer
side of each breast. At the first will you produce colostrum, this is a special
pre milk high in protein and for antibodies that gives protection against a
range of diseases. After 3 until 5 days high protein transitional milk mixes
in. Then about 2 weeks after the birth, your breasts make mature milk.
What happens if you do not breastfeed?
The advised is not to express the milk or stimulate the breasts with message
or hot baths, to wearing good bra and to leave well alone. If there is no milk
leaving at the body, a chemical signal will eventually stop for being made.You
maybe may feel uncomfortable and sore during the process occurs, usually around
3 until 4 days after birth. But you can take a simple painkillers to make this
