First Trimester

The first trimester runs from week 1 to the end of week 12 of pregnancy. It's the stage where energy dips, nausea peaks, and the body changes faster than the bump shows. Most women find this the hardest stretch despite looking the least pregnant, with morning sickness affecting up to 80% of pregnancies and tiredness setting in from around week 6.

BABYGO first trimester essentials focus on the symptoms and changes that happen before the bump arrives. Maternity bras typically need replacing first (the ribcage expands before breasts grow), and a pregnancy pillow helps with the sleep disruption that starts much earlier than most expect. Compression socks ease the dizziness and tired-leg symptoms that often catch women out from week 8 onwards.
