Congratulations – you’re in your first trimester! Throughout your pregnancy there are a number of prenatal tests which your midwife or doctor may recommend you have.

Your pregnancy: weeks 36-40. It’s time for the final preparations before the big day.

There's nothing more beautiful and calming than to watch your baby sleep. During the early weeks your baby devotes much of the day and night to sleep.

Time’s up! If they haven’t already, your baby will arrive any day now. And then you will be a parent at last! Read more about this week.

You might have felt a few contractions already and were wondering if that was “it”. Don’t worry, you won’t miss the start of labour! Read more about this next to last week.   

Two more weeks! Yes, it’s true, you and your little one will soon be making each other’s acquaintance.  Everything is pretty much in place. Read more about this week. 

Your baby tends to keep their head down, arms crossed, and legs folded up on their chest as there’s not much room to move around. They’ll be very glad to get out and stretch!

From now until your little gem makes their grand entrance, your baby will continue to grow.  They are already 34cm long from head to bottom and weighs about 2.5 kilograms!

In about a month, you’ll be holding that little bundle of joy in your arms. Until then, there’s still lots of polishing and refinement going on inside you. Read more about this week.

Your baby is still developing as you head into the final lap, but it’s mostly perfecting and polishing from here on out. They are getting ready to meet you!

About six weeks. That’s how long you’ve got left before you get to meet the little person growing inside you. Amazing, right? We think so. Read on to know more about this week. 

Things are slowing down a little in your belly now. That’s because everything is getting close to being developed! Your baby is around 30 cm from head to bottom and weighs over 2 kilos.

Every day, your baby develops more, getting ready to make an entrance into the world in just under 10 weeks. Has it gone fast or is the time creeping by for you? Every mum feels it differently.

At 31 weeks pregnant, your baby is the size of a leaf of kale. They will start getting into position for birth soon. Learn more.

As you inch your way towards the finish line – you will be giving birth in about ten weeks! – your baby is still growing by leaps and bounds, and most of their organs are fully functioning.

Your little one is around 25 cm long from head to bottom and already weights about 1 kilogram, approximately a third of their birth weight.

Your pregnancy: weeks 32-35. A healthy baby will now weigh over 2kg. You may find your doctor's appointments become more frequent from now on as you get closer to the birth.

Your pregnancy: weeks 28-31. Changes in your body continue to take place as you enter your third trimester!

Your pregnancy: weeks 23-27. Your baby develops movements that will later help them take their first breath of air in the world by inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid.

As your due date approaches, prenatal classes are a great way to prepare for the birth – and break through any fears you may have. Many women take their partners with them.

Your baby still has some growing to do but as of today, they’re around 24 cm long from head to bottom, big enough laying down to fit on your forearm between your hand and your elbow.
