Find out how far along you are in your pregnancy, your due date, and get detailed weekly updates on your baby's development.
Though you're not technically pregnant yet, your body is preparing for a baby. Your menstrual cycle is gearing up to release an egg, and your uterus is thickening to support a potential pregnancy.
Common symptoms: Fatigue, mild cramping, breast tenderness, missed period.
Your baby is now an embryo, and major organs and body systems are starting to form. The heart begins to beat around week 6, and limb buds appear.
Common symptoms: Morning sickness, food aversions, increased urination, mood swings.
Your baby is now a fetus, and all major organs are formed (though they'll continue to mature). The risk of miscarriage drops significantly after week 12.
Common symptoms: Nausea may ease, breast tenderness continues, bloating, constipation.
The second trimester is often called the "honeymoon phase" of pregnancy. Many women feel more energetic and experience fewer symptoms.
Common symptoms: Increased appetite, back pain, stretch marks, fetal movement (quickening).
Most first-time moms feel their baby's first movements (quickening) around week 18-20. The baby is active and can kick, stretch, and even suck their thumb.
Common symptoms: Round ligament pain, heartburn, swollen feet, increased vaginal discharge.
Your baby's lungs are developing surfactant, which helps the air sacs inflate. The baby's skin is still thin and translucent, and they can open and close their eyes.
Common symptoms: Braxton Hicks contractions, leg cramps, insomnia, hemorrhoids.
Your baby's brain is developing rapidly, and they can now dream. The baby's immune system is developing, and they can recognize your voice.
Common symptoms: Shortness of breath, frequent urination, swollen hands/feet, back pain.
Your baby is putting on weight quickly, and their movements may feel stronger but less frequent as space becomes limited. The baby's bones are hardening, except for the skull.
Common symptoms: Pelvic pressure, difficulty sleeping, heartburn, leaky breasts.
Your baby is practicing breathing movements and may drop lower into your pelvis (lightening). The baby's immune system is getting stronger, and they're storing fat for life outside the womb.
Common symptoms: Increased Braxton Hicks, vaginal pressure, fatigue, nesting instinct.
Your baby is full term at 37 weeks and could arrive at any time! Most babies are born between 38-42 weeks. The baby's lungs are fully mature, and they're ready for life outside the womb.
Common symptoms: Loss of mucus plug, water breaking, regular contractions, bloody show.
