the third week after
conception, marks the
beginning of the embryonic
period. This is when the baby's
brain, spinal cord, heart and
other organs begin to form.

four weeks after conception, the
neural tube along your baby's back
is closing and your baby's heart is
pumping blood.

appear, Your baby's body begins
to take on a c-shaped curvature.

conception, your baby's brain
and face are rapidly developing.

the eye lenses begin to form.

week now take on the shape of
paddles.

your baby may be 1/4 to
1/3 inch (7 to 9
millimeters) long a
little bigger than the top
of a pencil eraser.

It takes 49 days from

conception to form all the
organs a baby will have during
its lifetime. The rest of the
pregnancy, the organs are
learning how to do their job and
the baby is increasing in size.

First stage: Begins from

the onset of true labor and
lasts until the cervix is
completely dilated to 10
cm.

Second stage: Continues

after the cervix is dilated to
10 cm until the delivery of
your baby.
