Move over, three trimesters, the internet is now obsessed with everything that happens before week 1 of pregnancy.

Known as trimester zero, this burgeoning wellness trend has influencers dishing out tips, hacks and dietary suggestions all in the name of prepping "the soil for the seed".

And in headlines today, Former Prince, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has been arrested at his home in Sandringham as police conduct searches on properties in Berkshire and Norfolk; A supermarket giant fighting allegations of manipulating grocery prices as part of a nationwide "down down" promotion insists it "genuinely cares" about its customers; US President Donald Trump has told the ‌first meeting of his Board of Peace that $US7bn has been contributed to a Gaza reconstruction fund; Aussie actress Margot Robbie has explained how the movie The Mighty Ducks inspired her to take up ice hockey
