Pregnancy is a journey of transformation. It’s physical, emotional, and incredible in its unfolding. Keep reading to learn more about the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimesters with Mountain Miracles Midwifery, a midwife in Pueblo, CO and surrounding areas.
1st Trimester (0-13 Weeks)
The first trimester often feels like the longest stretch. You are full of wonder, maybe some morning sickness, and endless questions. For many, it’s a time of profound physical shifts, like developing a heartbeat, navigating nausea, and trying to eat something that doesn’t taste like cardboard.
Having a midwife in Pueblo, CO during this early stage can be a true anchor: someone who listens to your worries, helps with bloodwork logistics, and reassures you that yes, your body is doing extraordinary things.
Ready to feel supported from week one? Reach out today to schedule your first prenatal visit.
2nd Trimester (14-26 Weeks)
Often dubbed the “honeymoon trimester”, the second trimester brings your energy back. You might start feeling flutters, glowing (or just feeling more human again), and maybe even getting comments on your growing bump. Your body is doing a lot behind the scenes: placenta development, baby’s bones strengthening, maybe a gender reveal (or two)! It’s also when routine prenatal visits often shift to every two weeks.
A midwife in Pueblo, CO can walk alongside you, providing encouragement, helping interpret ultrasounds, and guiding you through the emotional highs of seeing your baby start moving.
Want that mid-pregnancy uplift and steady support? Book your next check-in now.
3rd Trimester (27-40 Weeks)
The 3rd trimester is intense. Nesting kicks in. You are juggling discomfort, dreams of labor, and prepping your space and mind for your baby’s arrival. Your check-ins may even shift to weekly.
During this phase, your midwife becomes even more vital with practical support, emotional steadiness, and help planning everything from birth preferences to what to pack in your go-bag.
Feeling that home stretch tension? Reach out to talk about birth plans, and breathe with confidence.
Why a Midwife Makes a Difference

- Supports your emotional ups and downs.
- Sees birth as natural with evidence-based and family-centered care.
- Offers continuity across prenatal, birth, and postpartum phases.
