25% of 280 days. The due date itself is a midpoint, not a deadline: full-term births spread across roughly weeks 37 to 42.
This week
The embryo officially becomes a fetus now. Tooth buds appear and visible fingers and toes are distinct.
Measured in months, week 10 sits in month 3: The end of the first trimester brings the dating scan and the NT screening, and for many people the nausea starts to lift.

Frequently asked
What does 10 weeks pregnant mean in days and months?
10 weeks is 70 days since the first day of your last period, which is about 3 months pregnant on the four-week-per-month convention. 210 days remain in the 40-week count from here — that is 25% of the way through.
How big is a baby at 10 weeks?
Around the size of a strawberry, at about 0.9 g. These are population averages: a scan measurement that differs by a few days is normal and does not by itself mean anything is wrong.
Which trimester is week 10?
The 1st trimester. The split used here is the same one the calculator applies: the first trimester covers days 1–90, the second 91–195, and the third from day 196 onward. Other sources draw the boundary a week either side, which is why week 13 and week 14 can both be described as "end of the first trimester".
What appointments happen after week 10?
Next up: NT scan (combined test) at 11–13 weeks, Quad / anomaly blood screen at 15–20 weeks, Anatomy scan at 18–22 weeks. The full schedule is in the table above; exact timing varies by country and by your care team.
