Pregnancy is associated with a lot of body changes to prepare the mother for delivery and care of the newborn. Most of these changes are guided by hormones and they affect mood, weight, breasts, skin, blood, reproductive pathways and even position of organs in the abdomen. For instance, a mother gains an average of 12Kg over the period of pregnancy, the skin becomes smoother, the breasts become bigger and fuller and the tissues of the reproductive pathways become loose to allow them to stretch during delivery.
