The 14th week of your pregnancy is the beginning of trimester two of your pregnancy. The good news is, this trimester can be called the most comfortable one of the three trimesters in your journey to motherhood.

This week, you feel more energetic than the recent past and another positive change is that you once again start enjoying your meals.

It is still an early stage in your pregnancy but by now your full focus is on the baby. But you do need to take care of yourself too, so just in case you have not got the specialised blood tests done, do consult your obstetrician because it is important for you and your baby's health.

Due to the extra blood supply to your body, hot flushes are common in this week.  Many of you might observe red palmer lines on your palms. Nothing to worry as it is just the extra blood supply.

This week maybe one of the happy and important weeks of your journey to motherhood, especially for those of you who are going to be mothers for the first time.

You’re steadily marching towards the half-way mark of your pregnancy. You’ve already dealt with a lot of changes that pregnancy has brought into your life.

You have successfully reached the official half-way mark in your pregnancy, as the average gestation period is of 40 weeks. However, it is normal to deliver the baby two weeks prior or later than 40 weeks.

This week you may find it difficult to sleep. Your tummy gets in the way or your baby tosses and turns when you are about to fall asleep.

This week you may spend time coming to terms with your pregnancy and the reality of things that come along with it.

In Trimester two, you may get vivid dreams which can disturb your sleep. Often, your baby in the womb also features in these dreams.

A peek into the mirror will tell you that you have become rounder and there is a certain softness about your appearance.

At this stage, your tummy looks round and you surely look beautifully pregnant. For all you who are going to be mothers for the first time, planning things for your new baby can be a truly overwhelming experience.

You are now entering the sixth month of pregnancy. In trimester two, your ante natal check- ups were done monthly but now the frequency of the check-ups will increase to monitor all changes and developments closely.

At this stage, your baby is growing fast and your uterus needs to expand a little every day to fit it. But be excited, it’s just a few weeks before the little one comes in to the world.

This week, you are embarking onto your third trimester. Can you believe you’ve made it this far?! It’s nesting time. Relax and take some rest as this is an important stage in your baby’s lung development.
