After confirming pregnancy, the elderly at home do not allow the young couple to announce to the public so quickly, saying that the baby is very "stingy" and needs to wait until the baby is stable before announcing to the public. So, when is the stable period? 17 weeks pregnant, is it considered stable? With such doubts in mind, let's delve deeper together, hoping to help everyone unravel their doubts.
The first three months and last three months of pregnancy are relatively unstable, and the stable period is also considered at 17 weeks of pregnancy, but we cannot take it lightly. At 17 weeks of pregnancy, your weight has increased by approximately 2.3kg. At this point, your lower abdomen appears more prominent, and when you touch between your belly button and toe bones, you can feel a hard mass, which is the upper part of your uterus. Your abdominal circumference is approximately between 76-89cm, and you can no longer wear clothes from the past. You must wear loose maternity clothes to feel comfortable. Under the influence of pregnancy hormones, your buttocks will gradually become wider and thicker.
The fetus is getting bigger and needs more calcium to promote normal bone growth. So in mid pregnancy, you should pay attention to supplementing calcium. It is recommended to drink 1-2 bags of milk every day and eat more calcium rich foods such as fish floss, shrimp, tofu, walnut kernels, pumpkin seeds, etc. In addition, you should expose yourself to the sun frequently, participate in outdoor activities more, increase the synthesis of vitamin D, and make calcium better absorbed by the body.
During pregnancy, expectant mothers should try to avoid eating excessively stimulating foods and smelling unpleasant odors as they may lead to miscarriage. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's stable just a few weeks into pregnancy, because every mother's physical condition is different and every baby's development is also different, so we still need to pay close attention during pregnancy.
