Partway through the first trimester
This week your baby is around the size of a cherry.
There is no set timeline for when early symptoms ease — it varies a lot.
By nine weeks, many people have had nausea and tiredness for a while, and it's natural to wonder when they'll lift. There's no fixed week this happens — for many it eases toward the end of the first trimester, but the timing varies widely. Symptoms carrying on now doesn't mean anything is wrong.
Around now your baby is beginning to make tiny movements, but they're far too small for you to feel. Most people first notice movement between 16 and 24 weeks, and often later still with a first baby. When it does come, it usually feels like gentle fluttering or swirling rather than a distinct kick.
Gentle movement, rest, and food you can tolerate can all help.
Fingers, toes, and features become more defined in the next week or two.
