Baby at week 11
With 11 weeks left, your baby has already: Fetal breathing movements begin as diaphragm develops. Head is still half of body length. Fingers unwebbed; can open and close.
Mother's body — what changes
With 11 weeks to go, your body is: Nausea usually starts easing. Areolas darken. Linea nigra may appear on abdomen.
Nutrition & supplements
Focus on folic acid 400–600 mcg/day (neural tube), iodine 150 mcg, and small frequent meals to counter nausea. No extra calories yet — normal maintenance intake is adequate. With only 11 weeks left, focus on iron-rich foods to build baby's stores for the first 6 months of life, and vitamin K-rich leafy greens.
Safe exercise
150 minutes/week of moderate activity — brisk walking, stationary cycling, prenatal yoga. Stop any exercise that leaves you unable to hold a conversation. With 11 weeks left, prioritise perineal massage, pelvic tilts and squats — active preparation for the pushing stage.
