You will not feel your baby moving when you are 7 weeks pregnant, but you may begin to feel some physical changes in your body. You may feel tired because your body is putting energy into growing a baby. You may be experiencing symptoms of morning sickness, such as nausea and vomiting.
Your baby is a tiny embryo, and it is only a few millimetres long. An ultrasound may be able to reveal the embryo, and you may also be able to detect a fetal heartbeat. If the ultrasound is magnified, you may be able to see the beginning stages of separation of the yolk sac from the embryo. It is also sometimes possible to see the very early development of your baby’s internal organs.
The risk of miscarriage drops to 10%. Different factors, such as age, health, and genetics, will affect the chances of miscarriage. You can help prevent miscarriage by eating well, avoiding alcohol, and staying fit and healthy as much as possible.
At seven weeks, your baby is just the size of a BLUEBERRY! It is still a gorgeous embryo and only about half an inch or 1.27 centimetres in length. PRECIOUS!
Your baby is busy growing and developing. Every minute, it is generating 100 new brain cells. Your baby is even moving! But at this stage, it is too little for you to feel anything yet.
