🌱 Baby's development at 9 weeks

All major organs are now forming. Your baby officially graduates from embryo to fetus this week.

🤰 Your body at 9 weeks

Your uterus is now roughly the size of a grapefruit. Some women notice their waistbands getting snugger, even if there's no visible bump yet.

✨ Did you know?

The word "fetus" comes from the Latin for "offspring" — your baby officially earns this title this week as all major organs are in place.
