Pregnancy Week by Week/Week 8: Webbed Fingers and Toes
Week 8: Webbed Fingers and Toes
At 8 weeks, your baby is starting to move, although you can't feel it yet. All essential organs begin to form during this critical stage. Webbed fingers and toes are developing, and eyelids and ears are taking shape, marking important milestones in your baby's growth. Your baby is now about the size of a kidney bean.
Your Body During Week 8
You may notice your waistline beginning to thicken as your body adjusts to pregnancy. Your breasts continue to grow and may feel tender. Morning sickness often peaks around this time, and fatigue can become significant as your body works hard to support your growing baby.
Hati Health Tips for Week 8
This is typically when many expectant mothers have their first prenatal visit. It's important to discuss any medications you are taking with your healthcare provider. If approved by your doctor, you can begin prenatal exercises to help maintain your health and prepare your body for the months ahead. Additionally, consider using pregnancy support bands if you experience discomfort.

Ultrasound (Transvaginal)
A transvaginal ultrasound is a safe and minimally invasive test that provides clear images of the uterus, ovaries, and other pelvic organs. A thin probe is gently inserted into the vagina to evaluate concerns like irregular bleeding, pelvic pain, fertility issues, or early pregnancy. It’s commonly used for diagnosing cysts, fibroids, and other gynecologic conditions.
