Week 23 and counting!

You are 23 weeks pregnant.

Dates and numbers:
There are 118 days until your due date on April 02, 2007.
You are 162 days pregnant.
You are 5.3 months pregnant.
You are in your 6th month of pregnancy. (huh?)
Your 1st trimester: June 26, 2006 to September 24, 2006. (0 - 12 weeks)
Your 2nd trimester: September 25, 2006 to January 07, 2007. (13 - 27 weeks)
Your 3rd trimester: January 08, 2007 to April 02, 2007. (28 - 40 weeks)

Your baby's skeleton continues to develop, and bones inside the skull begin to harden - though they will maintain 'soft spots' until well into toddlerhood. Place two fingers across your tummy above your navel - that's about the height of your uterus at the moment. Oily fish in your diet could help boost your baby's health. (Women who eat oily fish while pregnant have children with better visual development, a major study at Bristol University suggests.) As the baby continues to grow, it has less space to move around in the uterus. Bones, muscles and organs are growing steadily.
