Avatar f tn The fetal heart undergoes a considerable amount of growth very early in pregnancy. The most critical period of its development is between three and seven weeks after fertilization, when a simple heart tube assumes the shape of a four-chambered heart. In fact, the heart actually begins beating by the 22nd day of life.
935426 tn?1244779980 Hello, I am wondering if anyone has heard of a fetal heart "pointing in the wrong direction." Well, those are the words our OB/GYN used. He said that all aspects of the heart seem to be fine -- though it appeared to be that the heart was pointing to the right . . . I think that's what he said. He said he "just wanted to be sure" and has set an appointment up for us with another physician to get a second opinion. I am quite perplexed by this.
Avatar f tn No its not especially in the first trimester. Rapid development of babies major organs, brain and spinal cord happen in the first trimester. I hear some women have a small glass while pregnant personally I wouldnt but if you were to you should wait at least until the middle of the second trimester. Ask your doctor. It is currently not recommended that any alcohol be taken in while pregnant since FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome) is not completely understood on when and how it all happens.

Avatar f tn m 6 weeks pregnant at the moment and i thought everything was going find until i got a call from my hospital telling me they needed to schedule me for an earlier appointment because when reviewing my ultrasounds they saw a problem with the fetus development. does anyone have any idea what this can mean? I would really appreciate it if you can help.
Avatar n tn Upon noticing a delay in starting menstruation, we consulted a specialist who advised some tests and the test showed that even she has well developed external female organs; the ovaries and uterus are very small in size. In other words the whole female reproductive system is undeveloped. The doctor showed no hope but just asked for prayers and to find some modern hormonal cure to this disability. It shocked all of us as the poor girl can’t live a normal life.
Avatar f tn I also would like to know if the size and development of the clit and labia will have something to do with developed sexuality, does it depend on how open sexualy she is and the frequency that she orgasms?
Avatar n tn I seen the fetal development specialist the next day for a repeat ultrasound and it was confirmed. But they said everything else on her is fine. I go back to the fetal specialist at 28weeks just to check her progress.
Avatar f tn The baby only measured 1cm which from my research isnt as big as most are this far long however Im not panicking about that as Ive been told all fetal development is different. Ive also taken some comfort in how nauseated ive been which to me is a good sign, but not so fun! So as of now I am relaxed and excited!!
1310633 tn?1430224091 Abortion critics have interpreted this to mean that abortion providers can’t make a profit on the sale of fetal organs. They then point out that the charges suggested by Planned Parenthood are varied, are the subject of negotiation, and don’t seem to bear any relation to the organization’s costs. If those charges are more than necessary to cover PP’s costs, critics argue, the transactions are illegal. I am not sure this is the correct reading of 42 U.S.C. Sec. 289g-2.
Avatar n tn If you break embryonic and fetal development into thirds then when you are in your 28th week the baby begins its final third of development. (Gestation is 266 days or 38 weeks of development). So either way you look at it you are in your 3rd trimester!
Avatar f tn 20 mm Fetal heart rate: 164 bpm, the other one is 33,7 X 18,4 Fetal length: 16,7 mm Yolk Sac: 5,9 mm Fetal heart rate: 166 bpm Also embryon1 age is 10w3d but embryon 2 is 9w2d. I'm very concerned. Are those differences ok? The next ultrasound is in 10 days and the wait is killing me.
Avatar m tn There is no safe amount of alcohol you can drink. Fetal brain development damage can occur with just one drink.
