Welcome to BumpWatch!
BumpWatch is our new video series following HerFamily.ie writer and Monster Munch enthusiast, Sophie White as she grows a baby.
Sophie will be giving us regular updates as the weeks pass, and this little raspberry grows up to be a watermelon.
On this week’s BumpWatch, Sophie finds out that she is indeed with child, though predictably there’re a few bumps along the way…
Follow Sophie’s updates on Twitter @HerFamilydotie and on our Facebook page
The 40 weeks of pregnancy are actually counted from the first day of your last period, so they include up to a fortnight before you actually conceived. A full-term pregnancy can last from 37-42 weeks.
By the end of the first trimester, all of your baby’s organs and body systems will have been developed. However, every pregnancy is unique and babies grow and develop differently, in particular after the first months. Any figures we use are just guidelines. Your baby’s length and weight may differ greatly.
Are you pregnant too? Congratulations!
