Updated on 3 November 2023
Throughout their pregnancy, mothers are always wondering what is going on with their baby each moment. Like, how many months is 8 weeks pregnant? Well, she is two months pregnant at this time, and questions about pregnancy are pretty normal at this point.

A mother may experience spotting at this point, which may or may not be alarming. If this happens, they should consult their physician immediately to rule out any problems.

At this point, the mother has 32 more weeks to go before delivery.
At week 8, the baby is growing at an amazing rate and is approximately half to three-quarters of an inch long in size, like a raspberry.
At 8 weeks of pregnancy, physicians generally prescribe the first prenatal checkup, where one may see a glimpse of their 8-week foetus on the ultrasound.
