4 WEEKS PREGNANT

What You Are Seeing :

• The small circle at the center of the sonogram may be tiny, but that little sac is a kind of baby cocoon called a gestational sac.
• The cells making up this sac will perform various duties in the coming few weeks.
• Some cells will form the placenta, while some will form the amniotic sac that fills with fluid to cushion your little one.
• Other cells will split to become the embryo (your baby-to-be).

Even though you're very early into the pregnancy, you'll notice your skin has become extra sensitive to sunburn and tanning. Instead of turning to skincare products or cosmetics that may not be safe in pregnancy, choose natural alternatives. Try Mylo Aloe Vera Gel that:

• Reduces Sun tan.
• Heals Burns.
• Hydrates & Moisturizes.
• Nurtures Both Skin & Hair.

By week 4, the ball of cells dividing in your uterus has developed into an embryo, about the size of a poppy seed. Brace yourself for the upcoming changes as the next five weeks are pivotal for you and your baby. Your little one has started growing already.

• Drooling : Do you wake up every morning covered in drool? Don't worry it's just one of the 4 week pregnancy symptoms and generally stops with the first trimester.
• Tiredness : Fatigue is very common and may trouble you every now and then throughout your pregnancy. Drink at least eight glasses of water every day and consume foods rich in fibre as they will make you feel much better and a lot less tired.
• Nausea and vomiting : This is the one of healthiest symptoms of pregnancy in initial weeks. You can consume anything that your stomach can handle like whole-wheat crackers, cheese, curd, cereals etc. Try focussing on small meals that will provide you essential carbs and proteins.
• Cravings & aversions : Are you hating the sight and smell of your favourite food? Or feel like eating a specific dish, for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Don't worry. Cravings and aversions to food and smell are very common during pregnancy.

Healthy choices : It's time to start focusing on your diet. Pump up your protein intake and avoid unhealthy foods. You may also want to bid farewell to any harmful habits such as consuming alcohol and smoking.
