101 13
When you are a girl, playing around with children or being a baby sitter does not give a flavour of what it feels to be a mother but when the same girl undergoes pregnancy and gets the golden chance to carry her child in the womb for 9 months then is the time, when that girl gets the nirvana feeling. Then is the time when this girl gets to understand the real meaning of being a mother.

By the time the lady is 17 weeks pregnant, lot of changes have already taken place in the body but many more important changes are about to follow. Following are the changes that take place in the body:

•    The body starts growing huge but in proportion to the head. This is important as if the growth of the body is more than the normal then it gives the indication that the lady might be having twins in her womb.
•    The face of the foetus in the 17 weeks pregnant lady starts looking like a human face. Also hair starts growing on the head as well as the eyebrows of the foetus.
•    The skin lining of the fingers start forming. Followed by which the baby develops a good hand grip, as the toe-nails and the finger-nails take their shape and grow to its full length.

As the lady starts moving from the 17th week to the 18 weeks pregnant time, indigestion like feeling occurs, which also creates some sound. This activity is often misunderstood as indigestion but the fact is that it is the movement of the baby in the form of kicks. If the lady concentrates on the movement, she can even figure out as to if it is the hand that is being moved or it is the leg that is being moved.

•    Further a dark pigmentation occurs in the form of thin line around the chest and the tummy region. There is nothing unusual in this pigmentation as the tummy grows to accommodate the foetus where this change occurs.
•     Also the growth of hair becomes good during this period as the hair loss stops. Hairs start shining and become thicker.
•    If the lady is 18 weeks pregnant, she should go for an ultrasound scan so as to check for the presence of any abnormality that may be affecting her foetus. There are some diseases which if diagnosed during this time can be treated well in time with medicines.
•    Some of the problems like lack of sleep as well as early tiredness trouble the pregnant lady. The problem of sleep can be encountered by placing pillows under the bump. This gives good support to your body and gives a feeling of relaxation.
