   Weeks 1-4 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   Conception takes place when {{char}} and another person (likely {{user}}) have sex together or {{char}} undergoes in vitro fertilization, which causes the fertilized egg to implant into {{char}}’s uterine lining.

   Around week 3 or 4, {{char}}'s body begins producing hCG, the pregnancy hormone that makes it possible to confirm her pregnancy with {{user}} (or someone else) through a positive test result.

   Implantation bleeding (light spotting) and mild cramping may occur as the egg implants into the uterine lining, often mistaken for a period. {{char}} might wonder if she's truly pregnant or just experiencing a weird period cycle.

   Fatigue hits {{char}} early on as her body shifts to support the new life forming inside her. Even though the baby is just starting to grow, {{char}} will already feel exhausted.

   Breast tenderness or swelling can begin as early as week 3 or 4, signaling the early hormonal changes that will prepare {{char}}’s body to nurture her child.

   Weeks 5-6 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   Around week 5 or 6 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, morning sickness starts creeping in. {{char}} often experiences nausea, not just in the mornings, but at random times throughout the day due to rising hCG and progesterone levels.

   The once-appetizing smell of food, even {{char}}’s favourite meals or snacks, often makes her feel queasy now, as heightened senses of smell and food aversions set in. Certain smells, even those that never bothered {{char}} before, may trigger waves of nausea.

   Frequent urination becomes more noticeable as {{char}}’s growing uterus puts pressure on her bladder. Even small amounts of liquid can sometimes send {{char}} rushing to the bathroom.

   {{char}}’s breasts continue to be sore and sensitive, with her nipples possibly darkening as a result of the hormonal changes.

   Weeks 7-8 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   Around week 7 or 8 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, extreme fatigue takes hold. {{char}} often feels like she can hardly stay awake, even if she hasn’t done much physically. Her body is working hard behind the scenes to nurture the baby.

   Bloating starts to make {{char}} uncomfortable, as the hormone progesterone slows down her digestion. She may begin to feel sluggish and complain about her pregnancy symptoms.

   As {{char}}’s hormones continue to shift, she may start experiencing mood swings, snapping at {{user}} one minute and crying in their arms the next.

   By now, {{char}} may also notice excess saliva and a weird metallic taste in her mouth. Though strange, it’s just another effect of the hormone changes in her body.

4. #4Weeks 9-10

   Weeks 9-10 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   By week 9 or 10, {{char}} may notice her first few pounds of weight gain as her body starts to retain fluids and prepare for the baby. She may feel frustrated, especially if she’s still battling nausea.

   Nausea and vomiting often peak now, with some women experiencing stronger bouts of morning sickness during these weeks. {{char}} might find herself rushing to the bathroom to throw up more frequently.

   {{char}}’s headaches and/or dizziness will start to become more noticeable as {{char}}’s blood pressure fluctuates and her body struggles to adapt to the increase in circulating blood.

   {{char}}'s gums might feel more sensitive, possibly bleeding when brushing. Nosebleeds could occur, all due to the increased blood volume making her tissues more delicate.

   Weeks 11-12 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   By week 11 or 12 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, nausea may finally ease up for her, allowing {{char}} to enjoy her pregnancy more. Her mood might lighten as she feels a little better, though some nausea may still linger.

   {{char}} may start to feel more energized as the first trimester comes to a close. Her skin may start “glowing” (the vibrant, radiant, fresh look many women show on their face while pregnant), a result of increased blood flow, and she might seem more radiant.

   Tight-fitting clothes will start to feel uncomfortable, though {{char}}'s baby bump isn’t quite visible yet. Her uterus is growing, but the change is more internal for now. She will likely notice her jeans no longer buttoning as easily.

   {{char}}'s breasts continue to change, becoming larger and heavier, which will require a switch to more comfortable bras.

6. #6Weeks 13-16

   Weeks 17-20 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   By week 17 or 18 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, stronger baby movements are noticeable, and {{char}} will feel definite kicks and rolls from the baby. {{char}} will usually get excited and ask {{user}} to place their hand on her belly so they can feel the baby’s kicks.

   Heartburn and indigestion may become regular problems for {{char}} as the growing uterus presses against her stomach. {{char}} might need to avoid certain foods or eat smaller meals to ease the discomfort.

   Around week 20, {{char}} might have gained up to 10-12 pounds, depending on her body type and eating habits. Her belly is rounding out noticeably now.

   Stretch marks might start to form on her belly, hips, and breasts, particularly if she’s gaining weight quickly. {{char}} might feel self-conscious, but these are a natural part of pregnancy.

   Weeks 13-16 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   Around weeks 13-14, many women experience a true reduction in nausea and increased energy, allowing {{char}} to feel like herself again. {{char}} will will likely have more interest in activities and may even feel up for more outings.

   Round ligament pain usually starts around now as {{char}}’s uterus expands. She often feels sharp twinges of pain on either side of her abdomen, especially when she moves too quickly or stands up suddenly.

   By week 15 or 16, {{char}} might start to feel the first flutters of the baby’s movement, called quickening. These movements will feel like gentle gas bubbles or light tickles at first, leaving her questioning if it’s really the baby or just her imagination. {{char}} will get excited and share this feeling with {{user}} whenever it happens.

   A subtle baby bump might appear around week 16, more noticeable to {{char}} herself and maybe even to {{user}}. She will likely start wearing maternity clothes by now for added comfort.

   Weeks 21-24 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

   By week 21-24 kf {{char}}’s pregnancy, kicks are much more pronounced, and {{char}} can feel the baby moving multiple times a day. She might even see the movement rippling across her belly and want to show {{user}}.

   Back pain starts to become a more constant issue for {{char}}, especially if she’s standing or sitting for long periods. Swelling in her legs and feet might occur, and {{char}} might need to elevate her feet to feel better.

   Braxton Hicks contractions may occur now, as {{char}}'s body begins to practice for labour. These contractions are usually painless but can cause discomfort as her uterus tightens for short intervals.

   {{char}} will feel tired more frequently, needing help from {{user}} with daily tasks as her body strains from the extra weight.

    Weeks 25-28 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

    The baby’s movements are vigorous and frequent around week 25-28. {{char}} will feel a near-constant presence of kicks and movements, which might even start to feel uncomfortable.

    {{char}}'s belly has become much larger by this stage, and her weight gain is more apparent. Her balance may be off, and simple tasks like bending over or standing up might become more difficult.

    Around week 27 or 28, she may start to experience colostrum, a thick, yellowish pre-milk substance leaking from her breasts.

    Leg cramps and hemorrhoids could become more of an issue for {{char}}, and she might need extra help from {{user}} to manage the discomfort.

    Weeks 29-32 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

    By week 29-32, the baby’s kicks are strong and sometimes visible from the outside. {{char}} might invite {{user}} to watch in awe as their child’s movements shift across {{char}}'s belly.

    {{char}} may feel more exhausted again, similar to the first trimester, as the physical weight of carrying the baby catches up to her.

    Swelling in {{char}}'s legs and feet will likely worsen, and she may need to wear compression socks to relieve the discomfort.

    Backaches intensify, and even basic tasks, like putting on shoes, become more challenging. {{char}} might rely more on {{user}} for support around the house and during daily activities.

    Weeks 33-36 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

    By week 33 or 34 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, the baby will likely move into the head-down position, getting ready for birth. This may cause pelvic pressure for {{char}}, making it uncomfortable to sit or walk for long periods. {{char}} will more often than not need to take a break from whatever she's doing and shift her position frequently.

    Shortness of breath may worsen, as the baby presses up against {{char}}'s diaphragm, making it harder to catch her breath, especially when lying down. {{char}} might prop herself up with pillows at night to relieve this pressure.

    Braxton Hicks contractions increase in frequency and intensity, though they're still irregular and not as painful as true labour contractions. {{char}} might feel anxious or excited about the upcoming birth as her and {{user}} both prepare for this life-changing moment.

    Around week 35 or 36, leakage of colostrum (the first form of breast milk) becomes more common, signaling that her body is gearing up for breastfeeding.

    Weeks 37-40 of {{char}}’s pregnancy:

    By week 37 of {{char}}’s pregnancy, the baby is considered full-term, meaning labour could begin at any time. {{char}} may feel increased pelvic pressure, sometimes described as the baby "dropping," making it easier to breathe but adding discomfort in her pelvis.

    {{char}}’s nesting instinct kicks in full force, and she might feel the sudden urge to clean and organize everything in preparation for the baby’s arrival. She will likely ask {{user}} to help her with final touches on the nursery, folding baby clothes, or stocking up on supplies.

    As labour approaches, back pain, cramping, and more frequent Braxton Hicks contractions become common, sometimes making it difficult for {{char}} to sleep or rest comfortably.

    Swelling in {{char}}’s hands, feet, and ankles may be at its peak now, and she might feel clumsier due to her larger belly and shifted center of gravity.

    Real contractions begin anywhere from week 38-40, starting as mild cramps and growing in intensity and frequency. {{char}} will notice a distinct difference from Braxton Hicks contractions, as they become regular and painful, signaling that labour is imminent.

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    Early labour is the beginning stage of childbirth when {{char}} may experience mild, irregular contractions. These contractions help the cervix dilate (open) and efface (thin) in preparation for active labour. This phase can last anywhere from 12 hours to 24 if it is {{char}}’s first child and is typically shorter (8 to 10 hours) if {{char}} has given birth before. Other signs may include back pain, cramping, and the loss of the mucus plug, which will result in {{char}} water breaking. {{char}} might feel restless or anxious as labour begins, and will need to be taken to the hospital.

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    During active labour, contractions become more regular, frequent, and intense, occurring every 3-5 minutes and lasting 60-90 seconds. During this time, the cervix dilates from 6 to 10 cm, signaling the body is preparing for delivery. {{char}} will struggle with the pain but will need to focus on breathing and relaxation techniques. The baby begins descending further into the birth canal as they prepare to enter the world.

    Keys: transition stage, push, fully dilated, labour, pushing, labor, contractions

    Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%

    Entry settings

    The transition phase is the most intense part of labour, as {{char}}'s cervix fully dilates to 10 cm, and contractions are very strong and close together. This phase can last 15 minutes to an hour, and {{char}} will likely feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and/or nauseous. Emotional shifts are common, and it might feel like she can't continue. However, this phase is short, and it signals that the pushing stage is near.

    Entry settings

    Once fully dilated, {{char}} begins pushing. Contractions may slow down slightly, giving her time to push with each one. It’s important to work with the body and follow the guidance of healthcare providers to bring the baby down the birth canal. This stage can last anywhere from 20 minutes to several hours. Once the baby’s head crowns (appears at the vaginal opening), the rest of the body follows quickly. After the baby is delivered, the placenta is expelled, marking the end of labour.

    After delivery, {{char}} enters the postpartum period, lasting around 6 weeks as her body recovers. She may experience uterine contractions as it shrinks back to its pre-pregnancy size, along with lochia (post-birth bleeding) for a few weeks. Hormonal changes can cause mood swings or postpartum depression.

    Physically, soreness is common, especially if tearing occurred. Rest, healing, and bonding with the baby are priorities, with feeding (breastfeeding or formula) becoming central. Support during this period is essential as {{char}} adjusts both physically and emotionally.
