Baby at week 14
At 14 weeks from conception (16w gestational): Facial expressions possible — squinting, frowning. Lanugo (fine hair) covers body. Liver produces bile.
Mother's body — what changes
14 weeks post-conception, your body is: Round ligament pain when moving. Appetite returns. Breast size increases 1–2 cups.
Nutrition & supplements
Add ~340 kcal/day above pre-pregnancy baseline. Prioritise iron (27 mg/day), calcium (1000 mg), omega-3 DHA (200–300 mg) and 71 g protein. Continue prenatal vitamin. Week 14 from conception (16 weeks gestational) needs targeted micronutrients — the developmental window differs from LMP-based advice.
Safe exercise
Continue 150 min/week. Avoid supine (flat-on-back) exercises after week 20 — they compress the vena cava. Swimming and prenatal Pilates are ideal now. At 14 weeks from conception, low-impact activity supports placental blood flow without stressing the fresh implantation.
