Best week-to-week pregnancy update thingy?

post #1 of 12
Thread Starter 
Do any of you ladies use a week by week pregnancy website with lots of good pictures of the belly and the baby? I want to find a good one. I'm already signed up with babycenter and MDC week-to-week, but I want more pics!!

I remember a couple of years ago seeing a huge montage on a website with women from each week of pregnancy from week 4 on up.. do you know about that one? Where can I find it?

I wish I could give you some suggestions, but the two I signed up for thd MDC and babycenter emails.

A word of caution - If you go to 41 weeks of pregnancy the babycenter one tells you your baby is now 1 week old! I got that one today and it sort of set me off in a bad mood that I'm still pregnant!

I personally like http://www.visembryo.com/baby/pregnancytimeline.html though I don't know if they have an email thing to keep you updated and the pictures aren't real but all the info is extremely nerdy to know. Also they count past conception not past LMP so you have to take 2 weeks off the usual pregnancy date to get where you are.

Have you noticed any weirdness with their measurements though? They count in "weeks past ovulation" but then the measurements for the baby are off by two weeks according to other things I'm signed up for. By measurement, visembryo is on par with LMP. Some of the other info seems off by two weeks, as well. so it seems like a really good, scientific site, but the dating discrepancy makes me doubt everything about it. It really bugs me, but I check it often anyway.

ETA: also, it goes to "40 weeks past ovulation" and says "baby is now considered full term." Huh?

My problem is that EVERYTHING has discrepancies... some tell me my little tribble is already moving involuntarily (at 8 weeks) others say it wont until next week (which does not make sense if so many women including myself feel strong kicks by 10 weeks)

So far the only thing they agree on is that my tribble is currently an inch long, the size of a green olive.

No real pictures, but I love the interactive 3D pictures every week.
