Baby at week 25
At 25 weeks gestational after IVF transfer: Nostrils open. Capillaries form under skin — skin turns pink. Fetus can grasp with hands.
Mother's body — what changes
Post-IVF at week 25, clinical picture: Sciatica possible as uterus presses on nerves. Hemorrhoids may develop. Constipation persists.
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. Post-IVF continue progesterone support and prenatal vitamin exactly as your REI prescribed. Do not add herbal supplements without clearance — many interact with luteal support.
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. After IVF avoid high-impact activity until confirmed viability at 8-week scan. Then follow standard trimester guidance.
