Pregnancy


 Pregnancy is also known as gestation, it is the time during which usually one or more than one offspring develops inside a woman. More than one or a multiple pregnancy involves more than one offspring.

Normally pregnancy can occur by sexual intercourse, reproductive technology can also help a woman to get pregnant. 


Pregnancy is divided into 3 trimesters.



  • The first trimesters
  • The second trimesters
  • The third trimesters


 The first trimesters is  from week 1 through 12 weeks which also includes conception. When the sperm fertilizes the egg, the fertilized egg at that time travels down the fallopian tube (a pair of tubes along which eggs travel form the ovaries to the uterus), and attaches to the inside of the uterus.

Where it begins to form the embryo and placenta (part of the ovary wall to which the ovules are attached). During the first trimester, the chances of miscarriage (natural death of fetus or embryo) is very high.


The second trimesters is from week 13 through 28 weeks, a woman may feel the movement of the fetus around the middle of the second trimester. You should know that, at 28 weeks, usually more than 92% of babies can survive outside of the uterus, if provided with a very highly, good medical care.


The third trimester is from 29 weeks through 40 weeks. Feelings at this stage of pregnancy tend to go from tiredness to worry and from worry to excitement about the newly unborn baby. During the third trimester your baby continues to grow, and the times comes near for the birth of the baby.
