Week 13
Reviewed by Dr. Humaira Latif, OB-GYN & Ultrasound Specialist
Welcome to week 13 of your pregnancy. Here’s a gentle look at what to expect at 13 weeks pregnant — baby’s size, changes in your body, common 13 weeks pregnant symptoms and a caring tip from Dr. Humaira.
Baby's size
About the size of a peach — 7.4cm. Welcome to the second trimester.
What's happening
Baby's vocal cords are developing. The intestines, which were growing into the umbilical cord, are moving into the abdomen.
Your body
Energy typically returns. Nausea usually settles for most women.
Common symptoms
- More energy
- Returning appetite
- Mild round ligament twinges
- Bleeding
- Severe cramping
- Persistent vomiting
The second trimester is often the most comfortable — a good time to start gentle prenatal exercise, walking, or prenatal yoga.
