Mother's body — what changes
10 weeks post-conception, your body is: Blood volume up 30%. Skin may glow or break out. Uterus is above the pubic bone.
Nutrition & supplements

Week 10 from conception (12 weeks gestational) needs targeted micronutrients — the developmental window differs from LMP-based advice.
Safe exercise
150 minutes/week of moderate activity — brisk walking, stationary cycling, prenatal yoga. Stop any exercise that leaves you unable to hold a conversation. At 10 weeks from conception, low-impact activity supports placental blood flow without stressing the fresh implantation.
