What Month am I In?

Are you tracking your pregnancy by weeks rather than by months? Each month of this guide includes specific weekly information to help you identify the approximate growth of your baby.

Please remember babies grow at different rates. The timing given in this guide is for average growth. Some babies develop faster and some develop slower. Also, the growth that happens to your baby is for the most part a long process, with organ systems and body parts taking several weeks to develop and then several more weeks to mature. Similarly, there is inconsistency with which women experience symptoms of pregnancy; only 50% of pregnant women have morning sickness, one of the most commonly recognized symptoms.
