10 Weeks Pregnant Symptoms
At 10 weeks into your pregnancy, your baby has now moved from the embryonic stage to the fetal stage. This can bring a new set of symptoms that you may start to experience. Here are some of the most common symptoms:
Increased Tiredness
Many women report feeling more tired than usual at 10 weeks. This is due to the increase in progesterone in your body which can make you feel fatigued.
Morning Sickness
Despite its name, morning sickness can occur at any time of the day. It is most common during the first trimester. You may experience nausea and vomiting.
Frequent Urination
You may find that you need to urinate more often. This is because of the increased amount of blood in your body, which leads to extra fluid being processed through your kidneys and into your bladder.
Breast Changes
Your breasts may start to feel more tender and swollen due to hormonal changes. This is a common symptom throughout pregnancy.
Real Life Example: Sarah, a 32-year-old first-time mother, recalls her experiences during her 10th week of pregnancy. “I was constantly feeling tired and had severe morning sickness. My breasts were tender and I had to urinate frequently. It was a relief when I understood that these were normal symptoms of being 10 weeks pregnant.”
It’s important to remember that every woman and every pregnancy is different. You may experience all, some, or none of these symptoms. If you have any concerns about your pregnancy, it’s always best to seek medical advice.
