How will your belly feel when you are two months pregnant? How should you take care of yourself during your two months of pregnancy?

Generally, the pregnancy is not obvious for two months, and the fetus is still in the embryonic state. However, mothers can still feel the presence of the baby from some subtle changes and feelings in the body. So what does it generally feel like?

How does your belly feel when you are two months pregnant?

1. A dull pain

Two months into pregnancy, the fertilized egg has just settled down in the uterus. As it gradually evolves into an embryo, the uterus slowly grows larger. The pregnant mother will feel a dull pain in the lower abdomen, accompanied by a slight pulling sensation. These are all normal phenomena.

2. Stomach bloating

Due to changes in hormones in the body, many pregnant mothers will feel their stomachs are bloated and they want to burp but can't. When they touch it with their hands, they will find that their stomachs are bloated.

3. There is a convex lump when lying down

If the pregnant mother lies down and touches her lower abdomen with her hand, she will find a raised hard lump. That is the uterus containing amniotic fluid and fetus.

4. Itchy skin

Pregnant women with poor skin elasticity will obviously feel itchy and red on their belly in the second month of pregnancy. That is a sign of stretch marks. Pregnant women can prevent stretch marks by applying essential oils or pregnancy creams.

How to take care of yourself during the second month of pregnancy

Eating small and frequent meals can relieve the troubles caused by pregnancy reactions; eating more fruits and vegetables can increase appetite and supplement various vitamins; a moderate amount of nuts can promote fetal brain development and help retinal development;

Early pregnancy is the golden period for fetal brain development. In order to avoid neurological malformations, pregnant women must take folic acid in time.

The first pregnancy test can be done at two months of pregnancy. On the one hand, it is to reconfirm whether the pregnancy is present and to exclude ectopic pregnancy; on the other hand, it is to check whether the fetal development is normal, including the fetal heart, embryo bud, etc.

Fetal development in the early stages of pregnancy is not particularly stable. In order to avoid adverse effects on fetal development, pregnant women must rest more, do less heavy work, and refrain from having sex.

What should I check when I am two months pregnant?

Two months into your pregnancy, you should generally go to the hospital to create a medical record. You can bring your ID card with you to the medical record, which you will use when registering. Choose a doctor, and it is best to ask which doctor is better at doing the examination and has a better attitude, because she will be responsible for all your examinations during the entire pregnancy, and it is best not to change doctors in the middle. It is recommended to go early so that the project can be completed. It is recommended to buy a file now and put all the pregnancy examination forms together, which will be useful when giving birth.

The main projects are:

B-ultrasound examination

Observe the number of embryos, check the size of the gestational sac, check for the presence of fetal heartbeat (that is, the heartbeat of the fetus), fetal bud and the implantation site of the fertilized egg, rule out ectopic pregnancy, etc.

NT fetal anomaly screening

This is an early pregnancy screening. The thickness of the clear fluid in the subcutaneous tissue of the fetal neck is one of the effective methods for prenatal screening of fetal chromosomal abnormalities. It can be used as an important basis for determining whether the fetus is a Down syndrome child, that is, early Down syndrome screening.

Blood test

Generally, when expectant mothers have abnormal conditions, such as vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain, blood needs to be drawn to check the values ​​of progesterone and HCG. If the blood HCG or progesterone is low, measures to preserve the pregnancy are needed, because this means that the fetus has signs of miscarriage.
