Surely every mother when entering the pregnancy stage is also curious, wondering how the baby develops in the womb, how the fetus develops. Indeed, this is an extremely warm and interesting journey.
The fetal development phase will begin from the moment the egg is fertilized within 12-24 hours after the sperm meets the egg. If all goes well, this simple biological event begins a series of increasingly complex processes that create a new person. Over the next several days, the fertilized egg continues to divide into many cells as it travels down the fallopian tube, into the uterus and begins to penetrate the lining of the uterus.
All these tiny molecules are the cells that will eventually become the heart. The germ of life originates here, when they begin to beat in unison. It is the pulse of life, more precisely, it is the beginning of a machine that runs the pumping process of blood. The embryo is now only 20 days old and about 2mm long. This is the period that marks great changes in the shape of the embryo. Very slowly, the embryo develops into a human form.
As the baby develops in the womb, the head and facial features become more visible. In the middle of the head form two small dark bumps. In just a few days, they will grow into tiny eyes. Gradually, other organs are formed: cartilage, muscles and tendons. At this time, the fetus has developed 34 days and is 5 mm long. Development happens quickly after that, as each day the baby grows in the womb by 1mm longer.
Each stage of fetal development will mark a milestone, as the arms and legs form, the hip bones will replace the tail. The mouth and nostrils are also shaped, and the neck is shortened. At the same time, the brain continues to develop and prepare for the role of total commander of the entire body. The embryo is now 44 days old and 17 mm long. The eyes are protected by a thin layer of fluff. The back is stiff and the head is straight. At this stage of fetal development, the heart and most of the internal organs have developed stably and are beginning to function smoothly.
When the baby develops in the womb at 60 days old, the baby will weigh almost 11 grams. By the end of the eighth week of pregnancy, all organs were present. However, they still have seven months to continue to develop and perfect.
Happiness is what any mother feels when she sees the fetus developing in her body every day, however, to help this process be perfect, remember to eat scientifically, rest. reasonable and don't forget to do prenatal screening.
