What's Happening With Your Baby
The second trimester begins. The baby can make facial expressions — frowning and grimacing. Fine hair (lanugo) is covering the body. The neck has lengthened and the head sits more upright.
What's Changing For You
The stretch most women call the most enjoyable part of pregnancy begins as energy returns. Your belly is rounding out. Your appetite may increase noticeably.
To Do This Week
While your energy is good, start birth preparations: hospital, delivery type, leave planning.
Your calorie needs are rising, but not 'eating for two' — roughly 340 extra calories.
Start getting used to sleeping on your side; lying flat on your back isn't advised later on.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many months is 14 weeks pregnant?
Week 14 of pregnancy falls in month 4 and in the second trimester. Pregnancy months don't run in neat four-week blocks, so the week-to-month conversion rarely lands on a whole number — which is why pregnancy is tracked in weeks.
How big is the baby at 14 weeks?
At 14 weeks your baby is roughly the size of a lemon: around 8.7 cm long and 43 grams. These are averages; clear variation between babies is normal, and what matters is the growth curve your doctor is tracking.
How long is left at 14 weeks pregnant?
Assuming a 40-week pregnancy, you have around 26 weeks left at week 14. Most births happen between weeks 37 and 42, so a due date is a range rather than a fixed day.
What should I watch out for at 14 weeks?
While your energy is good, start birth preparations: hospital, delivery type, leave planning. Your calorie needs are rising, but not 'eating for two' — roughly 340 extra calories. Start getting used to sleeping on your side; lying flat on your back isn't advised later on.

When To Seek Care Immediately
Whatever week you are in, contact your doctor or the nearest health facility without waiting if you have: vaginal bleeding or fluid loss, severe persistent abdominal pain, a severe headache, blurred vision or flashing lights, sudden swelling of the hands or face, a fever above 38 °C, burning on urination with fever, persistent vomiting, fainting, or — after week 28 — a clear reduction in your baby's movements. In these situations reach real medical care rather than an app or a web search.
