Event Schedule Hall: Second Trimester

You're halfway through your pregnancy! Weeks 20 to 24 are a special time, filled with noticeable changes for both you and your baby. Your baby’s organs are maturing quickly and starting to work together. What was once a tiny group of cells is now beginning to look and act more like a newborn. These weeks bring many exciting developments as your baby gets ready for life outside the womb

During weeks 16-20 of pregnancy, your baby starts to hear your voice and other noises! This stage marks an exciting step as your baby's hearing system becomes developed enough to notice both sounds inside your body and some coming from the outside. Although everything is still muffled, these first sound experiences are very important for your baby's brain and for building a close bond with you before birth.

Welcome to the second trimester! For many people expecting a baby, weeks 13 to 16 are special because this is often when you first notice your baby moving. Even though your baby has been moving inside your womb for a while, these weeks are when you might finally feel those tiny twists and turns yourself. This first sensation, called quickening, helps you feel more connected to your growing baby. It often feels like a gentle flutter, a tickle, or a pop, letting you know your baby is getting bigger and stronger.
