Month 4

How is my body changing?

You may be more hungry as your morning sickness goes away. If you still have morning sickness, tell your provider. You also may have more energy. But you may start to have heartburn. Try eating 4-5 smaller meals each day instead of 3 larger ones. And don't eat spicy food.
Near the end of this month, you may feel your baby move for the first time.
You gain about 1/2kg a week. Your belly begins to show. You may need to wear maternity clothes and bigger bras now.
It's OK for you and your partner to have sex if you want. It won't hurt the baby. You may have to try new positions as your belly gets bigger. Do what's comfortable for you.

Your baby moves, kicks and swallows.
Baby's skin is pink and see-through.
The placenta is provides food and oxygen to your baby throughout pregnancy. You can pass bad things through the placenta, so don’t drink alcohol, smoke, or abuse drugs.
By the end of the fourth month, baby is about 15-18cm long and weighs about 110-140gr.
