5 weeks pregnant

 

 

 

Week 5

You
By week 5, your period is late so you may begin to think that you could be pregnant and you may notice
that your breasts are slightly bigger and tender to touch. But you may simply feel as if your period is about
to start (some women have called the first couple of weeks of pregnancy the 'longest stretch of PMS they
have ever experienced'!).
As soon as your period is a day late, you can do a urine pregnancy test. You can go to a doctor for a
pregnancy test or you can buy a pregnancy testing kit from your pharmacy.
Some women may have already experienced nausea and vomiting by this time. This is known as morning
sickness but can actually happen at any time of the day or night. The severity of morning sickness and
how long into the pregnancy it lasts varies a great deal from one woman to another. For most women who
do get morning sickness, the problem usually improves greatly by the end of the first three months, if not
sooner.

Your baby
At week 5, your baby is about 2 mm long. Your baby's spine, brain, muscles and bone are already
starting to form.
