How baby may be developing

Fetal limbs and body proportions keep changing as growth continues.

Possible changes for you

Symptoms may begin easing for some, but not everyone.

Focus for this week

Aim to complete an early ANC assessment by 12 weeks when possible.

🥗 Nutrition & food ideas

Food ideas for this stage

  • Include fruit, vegetables, whole grains such as oats/roti and varied meals.
  • Choose pulses, beans, chickpeas or thoroughly cooked eggs/other safe protein foods.
  • If nauseated, try small frequent meals and fluids; discuss persistent vomiting.
  • Vegetarian options: legumes, soy, tofu, nuts if tolerated, pasteurised paneer/curd; discuss vitamin B12 adequacy with a clinician.

Food safety: wash produce and hands, use pasteurised dairy, cook eggs/meat thoroughly and avoid alcohol.

Iron, folate and other supplements require individual/local-program guidance; the tracker does not prescribe doses.

Gestational diabetes, hypertension, anaemia, multiple pregnancy or other complications need an individualized nutrition and activity plan from your maternity team.

🚶 Movement & exercise

Safe movement ideas

  • You have not confirmed an individual activity review. Discuss exercise safety and restrictions with your obstetric/midwifery team before following an activity plan.

Stop activity and seek urgent assessment for bleeding, leaking fluid, chest pain, faintness, severe headache, regular painful contractions, or calf pain/swelling.

✚ ANC & birth preparedness

WHO example: eight antenatal contacts

These are approximate model contacts, not booked appointments. Your maternity team may change timings for individual risks and local policy.
