Week 6

You:

In week 6, you may have morning sickness as your hormone levels increase. The nausea can actually occur at any time of the day. Your breasts may feel tingly and heavier than they used to. The nipple may also darken.

It is important to avoid changing the cat litter box, because it may put you at risk of toxoplasmosis, which could endanger the pregnancy. You don't have to give away your cat, just get another person to change the litter.

Your baby:

The arms and legs start to elongate. The brain is developing rapidly, forming countless neurons. Nostrils and lenses of the eyes form. The intestines grow, but they are not actually internal, they are in the umbilical cord. The pancreas forms as well.
