As you move into the second trimester, baby shifts into the growth and maturation stage. After weeks in the critical development stage, almost all of baby's systems are fully formed.
Note: This description is a bit misleading by stating that I'm moving into the second trimester this week. However the second trimester will not officially begin until 13 weeks 3 days which is next Wednesday for me. Since pregnancy is divided into 3 trimesters and gestation is 40 weeks by medical definition, 40 weeks divided by 3 trimesters makes each trimester 13 weeks and 3 days long. I hope I didn't confuse anyone!
