2nd Trimester

So this may be a stupid question but I feel like I am always getting different answers.  When does the 2nd trimester really start?  Am I there yet??  Sad

I would really like to believe that I am in the 2nd trimester but I'm just not sure.

Re: 2nd Trimester

  • You are! the books all say the end of 12 weeks (which would be day 1 of week 13) but if you divide 40 by 3 you get 13.3 and you are now 13.4. So welcome to the second trimester! Big Smile

    This confuses me as well.  I have my next OB appointment tomorrow and plan on asking the doctor what method he uses.  LOL

    YAY! Thanks for the clarification.  That makes sense.  I always had thought that the 2nd trimester started at 12 weeks but I just wasn't sure.  I'm so excited!  I feel like I have accomplished something during this pregnancy.  lol

  • SAME.  I've seen some websites that say week 14, but yet my fellow preggo friend and mother say 12 weeks.  I'm at 12w2d now, so I think I'll celebrate this weekend to be sure.
