How does my baby grow at 11 weeks?

As you come to the end of the first trimester, our baby is now around 41mm, which is the size of a fig! While their head may still be big and disproportionate to their body, their body is starting to catch up. Fingers and toes are beginning to separate out and become more defined. Your baby now has a pair of miniature ears growing as well as fingernails.

What are the pregnancy symptoms at 11 weeks?

As well as the usual morning sickness and tiredness, you might find that you leak water when you sneeze or run. This is perfectly natural and a result of your pelvic floor muscles loosening to accommodate your growing womb. To stop your leaks, practice doing pelvic floor exercises by squeezing your pelvic floor for 10 seconds. Squeeze it for 10 seconds, and do 10 repetitions, 3–4 times a day. These exercises can also be useful when preparing your body for birth, so it’s good to start practicing now! Other common symptoms include breast soreness and nausea or vomiting.
