14 Weeks Pregnant
Development at 14 Weeks
Week 14 marks the beginning of the second trimester for most counting methods. The kidneys are typically producing urine at this stage. Eyebrows and a small amount of hair may be visible. The fetus is roughly the size of a lemon. Many people notice a decrease in first-trimester symptoms like nausea around this general timeframe.
