Pregnancy Calendar: First Trimester >> Week 6*
"You gotta have heart"
Hey Baby! Where U At?

*Note: This calendar is based on the LMP (Last Menstrual Period) system of measuring the length of pregnancy as 40 weeks (±2 weeks) from the first day of the mother's last menstrual period. Subtract two weeks to get the fetus' approximate age in weeks. **Advice is from a total know-it-all mother of one who has no business giving advice to pregnant women, other than that she was once pregnant too. This calendar is provided for entertainment purposes only and should not even come close to replacing care from your prenatal health professional.
