When does the second trimester ACTUALLY begin?

The internet seems to be completely torn. One website will say it starts at 13 weeks. Another right under it says 14 weeks. Then the next says 13 weeks. And so on! I’m 13 weeks tomorrow and I just want to be in the second trimester already!

One month left!

So are we just supposed to gaslight ourselves for the next month telling ourselves every symptom is a sign of labor happening soon, only for days to go by and we’re still waiting for baby time? 😅🫠 Ugh! T-minus 28 days (or less)! 🤞🎀

So much love

My LO slept on me most of the day today and I just couldn't believe she was here sleeping on me. After two MCs and so much anxiety during pregnancy, I am so grateful every day for her. This is still so surreal 🥹🫶🏻
