You’re just three weeks away from completing your first trimester!
Here’s what this week has in store for you.
This week, your uterus and breasts continue to grow bigger and you may even find yourself thickening slightly around your waistline. You may begin to gain weight, unless you still suffer from a poor appetite as a result of morning sickness. If you do, there is no cause for worry, as your baby is still small enough to gain its nutrition even from a reduced diet.

This week, your baby has graduated from an embryo to a fetus. These two phases pertain to different periods of development. While the embryonic phase involves the formation of major organs, the fetal phase involves their growth and development. By this point, your baby has started developing more distinct facial features. At 9 weeks pregnant, you may still be worried about your risk of miscarriage. Seek comfort in knowing that once you’ve seen or heard a heartbeat, your risk falls to only 3 percent. This risk will decline further in the coming weeks.

At 9 weeks of pregnancy, some may experience nausea and vomiting, extreme fatigue, food aversions, and mood swings, making you physically and mentally overwhelmed. Usually, the first trimester, i.e., week 1-12, can be challenging for women as hormone levels spike during this period. Every pregnancy is unique, and some may find it hard to manage the intense early pregnancy symptoms.
At 9 weeks pregnant, you may feel various emotional and physical symptoms of early pregnancy. Due to a sudden spike in pregnancy hormones, you may feel anxious, irritable, or excited. You may also feel extremely tired, bloated, dizzy, and experience frequent trips to the bathroom.
No, your baby cannot feel your touch at 9 weeks pregnant, as the sense of touch is not developed. Research reveals that your baby can experience the sense of touch only after 24 - 30 weeks of pregnancy.
