Here is your complete guide to having a baby. Find out what is happening to you and your baby on your journey to parenthood with our Pregnancy by week; discover why your health, fitness and nutrition are important to the development of your baby; make informed labour and birth choices by assessing the information available and very importantly learn what happens in the days and weeks after you hold your baby in your arms for the first time.

Tips & Advice on Pregnancy Symptoms

Anxiety is a huge part of this phase. Read more here on various methods you can check whether you are pregnant or not.

Pregnancy Diet

All you can and cannot eat during your pregnancy. Cravings are natural during pregnancy, however here are some of the food that you can have a lot of and some that you might need to avoid for a few months.

Getting pregnant

While getting pregnant will be easy for some, it might take years and involve a lot of heartache for others. We here try to help you plan better.

Ovulation and fertility

Knowing the patterns of your own ovulation cycle is key to ensuring that you have sex at the time when you are most likely to fall pregnant. You are most likely to fall pregnant if you have intercourse in the day or two before ovulation occurs; so an understanding of when that is likely to be, can help identify your fertile period.

Bucket List

Pregnancy Planning

Pregnancy planning begins first. Be it your diet, your lifestyle or your mental health status, here are a few checklists you can maintain.

Trimester 1

For at least half of the first trimester, most women don't even realize they are pregnant. Even though it doesn't seem to make sense that we count pregnancy weeks from before conception even happens, it is the only way to estimate.The first trimester is a time of tremendous development. In this series, we will look at each of the 13 weeks in this important trimester and see that however tiny it is, vital foundations are being laid down to optimize your embryos chances of survival.

Trimester 2

By week 12 of pregnancy, the baby is fully formed and appears more like a minute human. Its head is disproportionally large to the rest of its body and the facial features are recognizable. The second trimester is about further maturity of vital body organs and nervous system development.

Trimester 3

By the third trimester, the baby is having regular periods of rest and activity. It frequently changes the way it is lying, kicks and moves to find its own comfortable positions in the uterus. Your baby's brain and nervous system will be fully formed by now and its lungs are continuing to mature.

Child birth

The moment that you have been waiting for is finally here and there is nothing that is going to stop it from happening; your baby will be born one way or another. Knowing what happens during labour and delivery can help relieve your anxiety.
