Your uterus and placenta will continue to grow as your body produces more amniotic fluid.

Your body also produces and circulates 50 percent more blood. The increased circulation makes your face seem brighter. Hence the pregnancy glow! The hormonal changes also make your oil glands work overtime. Besides making your skin shiny, this also invites acne. So wash your face with a mild soap twice a day.
