Witness Jen’s journey through the second trimester of pregnancy, from Week 13 to Week 27.
The image gallery below depicts the power of the female body and its capacity to adapt, grow, and sustain new life in such a short amount of time
Second trimester (17 weeks): Announcement photos on the roof of our apartment in San Francisco.
Second trimester (22 weeks): Hiking around Mirror Lake Trail at Yosemite National Park.
Third trimester (30 weeks): Trip to Patrick’s Point State Park, one of Jen and Karl’s favorite campsites (near Redwood National Forest).
Third trimester (34 weeks): San Francisco's sky turned orange as the sun is blocked out. That day (9/9/20), there was a rare combination of marine layer fog and smoke from a historic number of nearby fires.
Full Term (40 weeks): We hit our due date but the baby wasn't ready yet.
The full process: (from left to right) 17 weeks to 40 weeks pregnant to Ernesto at 2 weeks postpartum.
