Pregnancy symptoms at 18 weeks

You're just a week away from the halfway mark. Pregnancy care is much more relaxed than it used to be, so you're unlikely to see your midwife or doctor often unless you need extra attention. But don't stress over things alone if you're feeling anxious. Call your doctor or midwife if you're still worried.

In the next few weeks you'll probably be offered a second trimester ultrasound. Seeing your baby is immensely moving. If your pregnancy is problem-free, this may be your last opportunity have an ultrasound.

Bigger, more comfy clothes are a must now. Treat yourself to a new pair of shoes in a bigger size; your feet will swell. Pick a low heel for stability as your belly grows.
