28 weeks. It's a weird one as the first and third trimester are 12 weeks long but the second trimester is 16 weeks

I always thought it was from 28 weeks, going by nhs website.

Great thanks all!!

Looks like the generic here is 28 weeks so I'll take it as that 😊

From 28 weeks. You are classed as full term from 37 weeks so it can be the shortest or longest trimester depending on how long baby holds on for.
