Morphology
The phrase is fully compositional: 'third' denotes the ordinal position and 'trimester' denotes a three-month stage of pregnancy, so 'third trimester' straightforwardly means the third of the three pregnancy stages. A B1 learner who knows both constituent meanings can infer this meaning without prior exposure; the construction is cross-linguistically common and follows standard English noun phrase composition patterns.
Etymology
Third trimester comes from dividing pregnancy into three parts, called trimesters, each about three months long. The third trimester is the 'last part' when the baby grows most and the body gets ready for birth, so it means the time from about week 28 until the baby is born.
