8 Weeks Pregnant (Cont.)

Changes in Your Body When You're 8 Weeks Pregnant

During week 8 of pregnancy, you may find that your waistline is expanding because your uterus is growing. When you are 8 weeks pregnant, your uterus is now the size of an orange. If this is your first pregnancy, you are probably not showing; however, if it is not your first pregnancy, you may be showing because your muscles and ligaments are not as tight.
 
Pregnancy symptoms that you may experience during this time include:
 
  • Acne
  • Increase in hormones
  • Tender, swollen breasts
  • Tummy pooch
  • Nausea
  • Extreme fatigue.
