PREGNANCY

Second Trimester

0 user(s) have rated this article. Average Rating:

The second trimester, the middle part of pregnancy, is the most comfortable period and is a good time to prepare yourself for the arrival of your little one. As your pregnancy progresses, the nausea and fatigue begin to fade and you start developing the outward symptoms of pregnancy, namely, weight gain and growing belly. Do not be alarmed if you experience shortness of breath or dull aches and pains in your abdomen, groin, back and thighs as these are signs of your body adjusting to accommodate your growing baby.

Though the risk of Miscarriage decreases as your pregnancy progresses, the possibility of preterm labor begins. Recognizing the signs of preterm labor like contractions or cramping, sharp pains, increased vaginal discharge or bleeding, continuous diarrhea, etc., can help you and your doctor can save your pregnancy.
