Understanding the Pregnancy Timeline
The pregnancy timeline is typically divided into three trimesters:
- First Trimester (Weeks 1-12): This period includes the conception, early development, and initial organ formation.
- Second Trimester (Weeks 13-26):strong> During this time, the baby's major organs continue to develop, and the mother may experience more noticeable symptoms.
- Third Trimester (Weeks 27-40): The baby grows rapidly, and the mother prepares for delivery. This is also when the baby's movements become more noticeable.
Formula: Baby's age in weeks = (Current date - Conception date) / 7 days
