The beginning is often the most secretive and symptom-heavy. Focus is on vital cell division, establishing your pregnancy, and navigating early symptoms like extreme fatigue and nausea. This phase concludes with your first crucial scans and checks.
With energy often returning and the risk of miscarriage significantly lower, the second trimester is generally the smoothest. You’ll feel your baby move for the first time, and preparation shifts toward major purchases and planning the nursery.
This phase is marked by rapid fetal growth, increased discomfort, and intensive preparation for labour. This is when antenatal appointments become frequent, and your focus shifts entirely to your Labour & Birth plan and final hospital checks.
Being well-informed is the greatest tool you have. Use this tracker as your personalised map, and remember to check back weekly.
