The course that the embryo and the fetus grow in the
maternal body
Stages of pregnancy

2.Mid pregnancy: ≥13 weeks,≤27weeks
3.Late pregnancy:≥28 weeks
4.Term pregnancy:≥37 weeks,<42 weeks
Physiologic changes in pregnant woman
Kidney
Renal plasma flow (RPF):↑35%
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR):↑50%
Ureter: dilated ( ↑ ) • Blood volume Increase by 30%-45% at 32
Bladder : frequent micturation –34th (peak)
• Relatively diluted
Composition
Red cells Hb:130→110g/L, HCT:38%→ 31%.

• Progesterone relaxes
the smooth muscles
enabling it to stretch
Changes in the cervix

upright and No longer a

slightly to
the right
• Increase in estrogen:
new blood vessels formed
growth of existing ones
• Therefore an increase in
blood volume.

• Mechanically stretching uterine smooth muscle increases
contractility
• Cervical stretching elicits uterine contractions
• Fetal effects –glucocorticoids placenta
inhibits progesterone
• Fetal oxytocin is also produced
Labor and Parturition
Parturition
Process by which the baby is born
Labor
Strong uterine contractions, Cervix stretching, Forcing the fetus through the
birth canal Rhythmic strong uterine contractions expel the fetus, Positive-
Feedback regulation of labor
Limited bleeding
controlled by local production of vasoconstrictors
(prostaglandins) Expulsion is by uterine contraction

Conditions During Pregnancy
CONSTIPATION
– Affects half of pregnant women
– Causes:
• increase in progesterone
• the colon absorbing more water
• worse in first 13-14 weeks
– Treatment:
• Drink plenty of fluids
• Eat high fiber foods
• Take fiber supplements – psylium husks, Metamucil, Ex-Lax

BREAST FEEDING FEEDBACK LOOP
• Suckling of baby stimulates nerves in the areola of breast
• This stimulates the pituitary to release prolactinandoxytocin
• The prolactin initiates milk production and moves milkinto ducts
• Oxytocin causes weak contractions in the breastto move the milk
• Oxytocin also causes weak contractions in the uterus to return the uterus to its
normal size and shape, thus breast-feeding mothers regainuterine musclecontrol
quicker
• •Hear baby cry à release oxytocin à start to move milk "milk let down“
• • Stress à lowers milk release à lots of milk à no release à increased pressureà pain
(thus it is important to be relaxed and in a quiet area to feed)
