Your baby this week
Your baby is moving constantly — stretching, somersaulting and even getting hiccups — though you can’t feel it yet. The head still makes up about half the body length.
Your body & how you might feel
For many, nausea begins to ease as the first trimester winds down. Your appetite may start to return.
Common symptoms at week 11
- Increased appetite
- Leg cramps
- Vivid dreams

This week’s tip: As appetite returns, focus on nutrient-dense foods — leafy greens, beans, eggs and whole grains — rather than just calories.
A gentle reminder: This is an estimate, not medical advice. Dates and figures are general guidance — every pregnancy is different. Your healthcare provider’s assessment, especially from an early ultrasound, always takes priority. Always speak with your provider about your pregnancy.
