weeks by week pregnancy - 4th week

This week, you should be able to know if you are pregnant.
If you do a home pregnancy test, the result should be positive. If the result is negative, test again in a few days or see your doctor. If the result is positive, you can take your first prenatal appointment with your doctor.

Your baby is now exposed through the placenta, which your body absorbs. Be aware of what you consume.

It is at this point in you are pregnant your baby is the most sensitive to anything that might affect its development.

The amniotic sac which houses your baby, the amniotic fluid that bathes it during its development and yolk sac (around the yolk surrounding the fertilized egg) that produces red blood cells and helps your baby to submit the nutrients until the placenta is ready to take over, are now present.
