Pre-Birth Development Wheel

Antenatal Development Wheel – a guide to pregnancy and childbirth.

This new full-colour wheel has been developed by a London Early Years and Community Services team, along with local NHS practitioners at North West London Hospital Trust. 

Like our other wheels, this version twists around to reveal the section you need, which in the case of this wheel is with regards to the stages of pregnancy from week 0 (the date of your last period) through to birth. It has information on both sides, with one side showing the babies development and the other side covering key developments. There is also a picture in each of the nine sections to help show the babies development.

Key developments cover how the baby is forming, what you as a 'mum-to-be' might notice and some of the things that it might to time to consider for each stage of the pregnancy. Section one is from week zero to week eight and the last section is from 36 weeks through to birth, with the other seven sections covering the twenty eight weeks in between.

Measuring approx 230mm in diameter, these wheels are easy to carry around. The back also has a useful addition with a calendar to enable you to count the weeks of your pregnancy and a ruler to give an idea of the babies measurements as detailed in the various sections of this wheel.
