Week 11 of your pregnancy

Your baby is about the size of a fig

About 4 cm long. Fingers and toes are separating, fingernails are growing and tiny ears are visible.

You this week

More blood volume can leave you tired, warm or dizzy. The placenta is taking over from the yolk sac, which can stir up emotions.

Tips for this week

  • Book your first appointment with a midwife or GP
  • Keep taking folic acid until week 12
  • Stay active: 150 minutes a week

Follow week 11 together
