During this week, you will feel positive about your pregnancy as you can hear the baby’s heartbeat. We bring you some common 10 weeks pregnant symptoms to help you understand the changes in your body at this time:
Morning Sickness – This symptom will start to reduce at this time and for most women, it disappears after the 14th week. However, you might still notice some nausea and vomiting in this week.
Fatigue – The feeling of tiredness and fatigue is quite high in the tenth week. Don’t try to be a super mom-to-be during this time. Ask for help and get as much rest as possible. If you are working full-time, you might want to take some days off to rest and relax.
Gases and Indigestion – This is a common symptom in the tenth week of pregnancy. Hormones are the main cause of gases and it is best to avoid foods that cause immense gases in the body like fried and fattening meals. Try and eat smaller meals so that your body can digest better and you can get through this annoying pregnancy symptom.
Vision Changes – You may experience a little blurriness in your vision in the tenth week as the increased blood volume and circulation can thicken and curve the corneas. You might experience dry eyes at this time. Don’t worry, your vision will go back to normal post-delivery.
Dizziness – Due to the extra blood pumping in your body, you might feel light-headed or dizzy occasionally. Sit down immediately when you feel dizzy and always carry some healthy snacks or sugar-boosting foods to stay energized when you go out.
These are some of the common 10 weeks pregnant symptoms experienced by most expecting moms. If you are facing these, don’t worry, you are not alone! Keep thinking about the baby’s arrival and you will be able to get through these symptoms easily. Good luck!
