For at least half of the first trimester, most women don't even realize they are pregnant. Even though it doesn't seem to make sense that we count pregnancy weeks from before conception even happens, it is the only way to estimate.The first trimester is a time of tremendous development. In this series, we will look at each of the 13 weeks in this important trimester and see that however tiny it is, vital foundations are being laid down to optimize your embryos chances of survival. 

By week 12 of pregnancy, the baby is fully formed and appears more like a minute human. Its head is disproportionally large to the rest of its body and the facial features are recognizable. The second trimester is about further maturity of vital body organs and nervous system development.

By the third trimester, the baby is having regular periods of rest and activity. It frequently changes the way it is lying, kicks and moves to find its own comfortable positions in the uterus. Your baby's brain and nervous system will be fully formed by now and its lungs are continuing to mature.

The moment that you have been waiting for is finally here and there is nothing that is going to stop it from happening; your baby will be born one way or another. Knowing what happens during labour and delivery can help relieve your anxiety.
