Welcome to Hello Bump, a podcast about what you’re not expecting when you’re expecting.

In this episode, hosts Jana Pittman and Grace Rouvray discover your baby is around the size of a plum or a jelly donut hole! Week 12 is last week of the first trimester and also when you might be able to hear your baby’s heart beat for the first time. Jana explains why you need a full bladder during ultrasounds, and what to do if you’re having trouble passing urine. Plus, Jana tells Grace exactly what doctors can understand about your baby’s development at this point in the pregnancy.
