Pregnancy Weeks: Your Complete Week-by-Week Guide

Welcome to the complete pregnancy weeks guide: 40 weeks from the first day of your last menstrual period to your due date. Whether you are tracking pregnancy by week to follow your baby's growth, or looking to calculate pregnancy by week to find your current week, every week is explained here in detail: your baby's size and fruit comparison, organ development, changes in your body, practical tips, and the answer to the most common question for that week.

Many mothers ask about pregnancy weeks by month: in short, one calendar month equals about 4 weeks and a third, and a full pregnancy is 40 weeks, or 9 calendar months. If you are wondering how many weeks are in a month during pregnancy, the table below shows the weeks of pregnancy by month exactly. To find your current week automatically, try the pregnancy weeks and months calculator on the home page; enter the first day of your last period and you will instantly know your week, trimester, and month.
