9 Weeks Pregnant: Symptoms, Baby Development & Diet

Healthmaxx Superspeciality Hospital – Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology

At 9 weeks pregnant, you’re almost at the end of your first trimester. Your body is undergoing significant changes, and so is your baby! Here’s what to expect this week:


🤰 Common Symptoms at 9 Weeks

  • Morning sickness and nausea
  • Fatigue and mood swings
  • Frequent urination
  • Breast tenderness
  • Mild abdominal cramping or bloating

Don’t worry—these are normal signs of early pregnancy as your body adjusts to rising hormone levels.


🍼 Baby’s Development This Week

  • Your baby is now about the size of a grape (approximately 2.5 cm long)
  • Tiny fingers and toes are forming
  • The heartbeat can often be detected through an ultrasound
  • Major organs like the heart, brain, and kidneys are continuing to develop rapidly

🍽️ Diet Tips for 9 Weeks Pregnant

  • Folic acid-rich foods (like spinach, broccoli, lentils) for baby’s brain development
  • Iron and calcium to support your growing needs
  • Stay hydrated and eat small, frequent meals
  • Avoid caffeine, raw foods, and processed items
