During the last trimester of pregnancy At what point should your baby start dropping?
When the sperm find the egg, the first one to penetrate the egg creates a barrier to all the other sperm. The cells of the fertilized egg (zygote) begin to multiply, staying clustered together in a ball. This ball of cells, called a blastocyst, slowly makes its way down to the uterus (three or four days after ovulation) and burrows into the uterine wall (five to seven days after ovulation), a process known as implantation. Even before the placenta and umbilical cord are formed, the cells of the developing embryo start getting their nourishment from the mother-to-be's uterine wall. http://www.drspock.com/article/0,1510,5049,00.html
Is fetal movement in the second trimester irregular?
Here are answers and opinions from Wiki s contributors:
- If you want to know for sure if it's the baby moving, like the last person said you should take a warm bath (NOT hot) and also, try a juice box that has a little sugar. This tends to make babies more active, and may help you to feel the movement. And no, it's not irregular - many moms have been known to feel movement between 17-18 weeks. Also, if you're not a first time mom, you may be more tuned in and you may feel your baby move earlier.
first time Mums often don't feel the baby move until around 20 weeks, second time around you are more 'tuned in' and feel it earlier. However the baby has plenty of room to move and as you can only feel it if it touches the front of the uterus (just under the skin where the nerve endings are) you will not feel much especially if the placenta is at the front as well.

It Causes FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME! LOOK IT UP! It is VERY HORRIBLE!
Especially when the fetus is developing in the early weeks and months of its life, your baby is developing things like its brain, spinal cord, and heart (circulatory system). That's some very important stuff to be making, so even a small amount of alcohol consumption WILL be devastating to your future baby, and you, when it comes out malformed AND/OR mentally retarded for LIFE! There is no cure for these kinds of deformities, and your child (and you, your life, and FAMILY) will suffer the consequences because you drank or smoked early on in pregnancy and throughout your pregnancy. Why even risk it, its NOT worth it!
Which happens to a developing child first?

To perform the Heimlich maneuver on a pregnant woman in her second trimester, position your hands just above the pubic bone and thrust inward and upward, avoiding the abdomen. This technique helps dislodge an obstruction without putting pressure on the fetus. It's important to ensure the woman is in a safe, upright position, and if she becomes unconscious, call for emergency help immediately and start CPR if necessary. Always seek professional medical assistance as soon as possible for any choking incident.

Can pregnant lady eat prineapple fruit during first trimester?
Drinking something containing only 4% pineapple juice should not cause you any harm. It is only contemplated if pineapple or pineapple juice can cause any effects. The effects that are being debated are not severe though. Pineapple/pineapple juice is something that can easily be avoided for 9 months and I can never judge anyone ill for taking precautions to the highest extent while pregnant but if you do choose to eat pineapple or drink it's juice I think you will probably be fine. I also would say that there should not be any effects caused from a drink that contained only 4%.
