What to write in each trimester

Stage What she may need Message idea
First trimester Patience on tired, queasy days "Rest today. I've got dinner, the dishes and the dog."
Second trimester Celebration as the bump shows "Pregnant and beautiful, inside and out."
Third trimester Encouragement and practical help "One week at a time is enough."
Due date week Calm and reassurance "The finish line is a tiny face you've been waiting to meet."

March of Dimes notes that pregnancy usually lasts about 40 weeks (280 days). Under ACOG and SMFM definitions, a baby born between 39 weeks, 0 days and 40 weeks, 6 days is full term (March of Dimes). Many babies arrive before or after the due date, so a "still waiting" text is often welcome.

What to say to a pregnant woman

  • Ask how she is feeling before you ask about the baby.
  • Offer specific help, like a meal, a ride or an hour of quiet.
  • Compliment her energy and strength, not only her looks.
  • Skip comments on her size, birth plans or weight gain.
  • Keep birth horror stories to yourself.

For a keepsake she can wear, try an embroidered "Mama" sweatshirt with the due year on the sleeve. Browse our personalized embroidered gifts. For more ways to say thank you, read our thank you quotes for mom and mother-in-law and Valentine's messages for wife.
