Pregnant - The state of carrying a developing embryo or fetus within the female body. This condition can be indicated by positive results on an over-the-counter urine test, and confirmed through a blood test, ultrasound, detection of fetal heartbeat, or an X-ray. Pregnancy lasts for about nine months, measured from the date of the womans last menstrual period (LMP). It is conventionally divided into three trimesters, each roughly three months long. .
