sorry, doc, but that's the second
trimester not the third.
The first trimester is from conception to
week 12/13
the second trimester is from week 13 to
week 27/28
the third triemster is from week 27/28
until birth.
There is allowance of a week or so between
the triemsters because different doctors
have different opinions - so it depends on
your source as to which week will be the
determining week.
