The Pregnancy Calendar - Your 40-Week Guide to Prenatal Care and Fetal Development

You're Laughing. You're Crying. You're Pregnant.

You're excited, nervous, hopeful, and hungry — sometimes all in the same minute. You deserve a guide that brings clarity, comfort, and a little joy to every step of the journey. The Pregnancy Calendar® has been that guide for over 35 years. More than 2 million families have used it to follow their baby's growth, stay organized through every prenatal appointment, and create a one-of-a-kind keepsake they'll treasure forever.

What's Inside:

Week-by-Week Fetal Development (Weeks 1–42)
Every four-week section walks you through exactly what's happening with your baby — from the first heartbeat at Week 6 to a fully developed newborn at Week 40. Illustrated fetal drawings help you visualize your baby's growth month by month. Includes Weeks 41–42 for late arrivals.

Expert Prenatal Guidance on Every Page
Written and reviewed by registered nurses and physicians, each section covers what to expect in your body, including morning sickness, nutrition, weight gain, prenatal testing, ultrasounds, labor signs, Braxton Hicks contractions, what to pack for the hospital, breastfeeding, newborn screening, and bonding with your baby.
