How many days are there in 11 weeks of pregnancy

Pregnant women can feel the changes in their body and mentality very well when they are 11 weeks pregnant. Although now everyone has gradually adapted to this problem. But the desire for knowledge also helps the baby to take stock of life every day, and the feeling of hope cannot be concealed. So how many days are in 11 weeks of pregnancy?

11 weeks of pregnancy is 3 months to 7 days. Medically speaking, one gestational month is 28 days, and the entire pregnancy period is 10 gestational months, or 280 days or 40 gestational weeks. At this time, you are almost three months pregnant. Although the fetus is changing very quickly, your changes are not so obvious. The uterus gradually expands as the fetus grows, and the fundus can be touched in the ischial tuberosity. The fetus has filled the entire uterus.

By the 11th week of pregnancy, the fetus' body length has reached 45-63mm, and the weight has reached 14 grams. The fetus can begin to suck, swallow and lift its legs. The fetus's microstructure has begun to grow, and his (her) nails and velvety hair have begun to appear. The fetus's vital organs, such as the liver, kidneys, intestines, brain and vocal organs, have already begun to function. This week, the outline of the baby's spine can be clearly seen, and the spinal nerves have just begun to grow and develop.

From today on, the growth and development of the fetus's skeletal cells will accelerate, the body will gradually lengthen, and the bones will harden. At this time, the fetus needs to absorb a lot of high-quality protein from the pregnant woman's body. If the pregnant woman does not absorb enough high-quality protein, the high-quality protein in her own bones and other parts will dissolve to supplement the lack of blood potassium to provide for the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women need to drink more milk and eat more high-calcium foods every day from now on. Because sodium ions are closely related to the fluid regulation of skeletal muscles, when the blood potassium of pregnant women drops to a certain level, it will cause leg muscle cramps, and leg cramps mostly occur at night. At this time, you can also carry out outdoor activities appropriately and get more exposure to direct sunlight.
