“> BETTER MATERNITY HOSE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF PREGNANCY ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. WITHIN 24 HOURS OF FERTILIZATION OF THE EGG, CELL DIVISION HAS ALREADY STARTED. WHILE THERE ARE NO IMMEDIATELY VISIBLE CHANGES IN THE PREGNANT WOMAN, PLENTY IS HAPPENING ON THE INSIDE. THIS IS ALSO WHEN THE DEVELOPING BABY IS MOST VULNERABLE AND CAN BE DAMAGED BY DRUGS, ALCOHOL, MEDICATION, ILLNESS (SUCH AS GERMAN MEASLES) AND TOXINS; SO IT MAKES SENSE THAT THIS IS ALSO WHEN MOST MISCARRIAGES HAPPEN. IN THE FIRST 4 WEEKS... For the first eight weeks, the grouping of cells is called an embryo and looks like a tadpole. Development during the first month is very rapid as all the major organs and body systems are being formed. The neural tube, which will become the spinal cord and brain, the heart and circulatory system, as well as the digestive system are all being built. The lungs, stomach and liver are being developed, along with the eyes and ears, and the start of the arms and legs which appear as little buds. By the end of the first month of pregnancy, there is already a pulse and the base structures that will form the face are being created - even though the entire embryo is still just a speck big. The placenta that will nourish the growing baby is also forming and the amniotic sac which cushions the growing baby is in place. This is also the time when morning sickness may strike some expectant moms. DURING THE NEXT 2 MONTHS... Now is when most women realise that they are pregnant, and a home pregnancy test will register positive by about week five. During this time, the brain and central nervous system continue developing along with the arms and legs, eyes and eye lids, ears and mouth - and there are even little tooth buds in place. Bones and genitals are also forming, along with all the major organs and systems - circulatory, digestive, nervous and urinary. The embryo has web-like hands and feet, and its head is large.
