11 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms: What to Expect

When you are 11 weeks pregnant, your baby is about the size of a fig and is starting to make movements in the womb. At this stage, you may start to experience a range of symptoms. Here are some of the common 11 weeks pregnant symptoms.

Frequent Urination

As your uterus expands, it puts pressure on your bladder, leading to frequent urination. For instance, you might find yourself waking up several times at night to go to the bathroom.

Morning Sickness

Often portrayed in movies, morning sickness is a common symptom in early pregnancy. It’s not limited to the morning and can strike at any time of the day or night. For example, you might feel nauseated after eating certain foods or when you wake up in the morning.

Increased Fatigue

Feeling more tired than usual is another symptom you may notice at 11 weeks pregnant. You might find yourself needing to take more naps or go to bed earlier than you used to.

Breast Changes

Your breasts may feel more tender or swollen due to hormonal changes. For instance, your bra might feel tighter than usual, or you might feel discomfort when you lay on your stomach.

Food Cravings or Aversions

Some pregnant women experience specific food cravings or aversions. For example, you might suddenly have a strong desire for pickles or be completely turned off by the smell of coffee.

Increased Vaginal Discharge

Increased vaginal discharge is a normal part of pregnancy that helps prevent infections. If you notice a significant increase in discharge or if it’s accompanied by other symptoms like itching or burning, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider.
