1431138 tn?1294566894 They actually start to develop the last few weeks of the first trimester. I think 14 weeks is the earliest you may be able to see the sex?
Avatar n tn (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 I get married in 5 weeks and I will be having a glass of wine or two before I walk down the isle! Haha. I never drank with my first baby.
760797 tn?1303264540 yeah MH says "congratulations you're in the second trimester!" in your day-by-day pregnancy guide when you turned 13w BUT it doesn't show 2nd until 14wk on your ticker... I considered myself 2nd halfway through the 13th week because I think, by days, that's when it converts... but I'll be celebrating 2nd trimester on MH when my ticker changes over tonight to 14wk LOL.
475489 tn?1223948282 Conception Another mathematical method where you take the 38 weeks of post-conception development, divide by three, and add two weeks. Here the second trimester begins at 14w5d and the third at 27w3d. Hope this helps Brandi 22.
Avatar f tn is important to fetal lung development. The fetus gets all of its oxygen and nutrients through the placenta and umbilical cord---a process called fetal circulation. Read more: http://www.livestrong.
Avatar f tn This app is weird it says I'm still in my first trimester but the other one I have says im in my second as of last week.
1310824 tn?1332377629 i find it confusing how there are 2 different ways of determining which trimester you are in and at that with gestation dates, everyone ovulates at different times so it is never really gonna be exact.
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 n tn Bone structure starts in the first part of the second trimester. Its not at all uncommon for babies to not have bone structure in the first trimester. I would not be so hasty to terminate. Give it a couple months to see what progresses of the pregnancy!!!!!
Avatar f tn it is written on the ultrasound pictures. I supposed based on the fetal size, a statistic to check if they are growing normally.
800427 tn?1324945719 I hear a bunch of different things..but one book I have does say it starts at week 14..
623156 tn?1322865851 For women Zinc helps cell divsion which is critical to the earliest stages of conception and fetal development. For men it helps with adequate levels of testosterone and sperm counts. Research has shown with 15 mgs a day in men it can increase semen and testosterone production, in women it can help ovulation and fertility. Natural resources of Zinc are fish, oysters, crab, turkey, chicken and beef.
Avatar f tn Yes, I've read the same data. Several different articles. I haven't asked my dr either. When I went and got a massage last week my massage therapist said her midwife told her the same thing, one glass a day was okay. I'm still unsure myself. I had a friend who lived overseas and she said the women/people in Europe are more excepting of it. So, talk to your doctor but a few glasses in the third trimester will not have the baby being born with fetal alcohol syndrome.
1428239 tn?1333457053 I always go by the beginning of thirteen weeks too! But I am assuming medhelp must go by the third method because mine didn't turn to the second trimester until I hit 15 weeks on here!
Avatar f tn I bought one on Ebay angel sound fetal doppler hand held it worked well cost around $50
Avatar n tn Dr drew blood to check my hcg levels because he believes im very early in the pregnancy. But calculating the date od conception and start of my laat period, it was about a month ago. What stage/ how many weeks into the pregnancy does heart/brain/organs starr form?
Avatar f tn Someone I know was leaarning fetal development in med school as I was going through my first trimester and I was told that was the most critical point in brain development. So my vote is no.
Avatar f tn t understand how my first trimester could of begin on the 22 if I didnt have sex until the days I listed. Sorry first time pregnancy 18 years old lol. Some one help explain? By the way my last period was June 8th but my doctor is going off something else I think. My doctor said March 29th is my due date. THIS IS WHAT I ENTERED IN THE CALCULATOR: Your due date is March 29, 2014. Your baby was conceived around July 06, 2013. Your first trimester begins June 22, 2013.
Avatar n tn yes but they wait until your second trimester if at all possible because the first trimester is the most important for fetal development.
Avatar n tn It seems that every ultrasound I have had in second trimester has measured my little guy differently. Sometimes he is right on according to dates, other times way ahead, etc. That is why they only use the early ultrasounds for dating purposes and don't change your due date based on later ultrasounds. I highly doubt there is any problem with your baby, they all grow at their own speed. Congrats, your getting close...!!
Avatar n tn I had an anti abortion activist explain the theory of the breast cancer link, and I was wondering if you could give me some insight into these claims. They explained the types of lobules and their development. That throughout the first trimester, the number of Type 1 and Type 2 lobules rapidly increase, resulting in the breast having more sites for cancer to start. In the second trimester, the lobules start maturing into Type 4 lobules, which are cancer resistant.
Avatar f tn If you would read on fetal development you would know a fetus stops moving around it's 16th week and won't begin to move till you're in your third trimester.
Avatar f tn I am very concerned about the outcome of this finding and would like to know what the odds are that this will eventually become a diagnosis of microsephaly? and the odds are of her head catching up in third trimester growth?
Avatar n tn But more importantly, once she does become pregnant, low thyroid hormones will definitely impact the developing fetus. The earliest stages of fetal development is the time when it is most critical for the mother to have sufficient thyroid hormone. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24015847 "Conclusion: Early TH [thyroid hormone] insufficiency from maternal hypothyroidism affects offspring hippocampal development and memory.
Avatar n tn The brain contains pockets or spaces called ventricles with a spongy layer of cells and blood vessels called the choroid plexus. This is in the middle of the fetal brain. The choroid plexus has the important function of producing a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid. The fluid produced by the cells of the choroid plexus fills the ventricles and then flows around the brain and the spinal cord to provide a cushion of fluid around these structures.
Avatar n tn My grandma found out at 10 weeks, but she had an amnio... I found out at 15 weeks, but there are some techs that will render a guess earlier with the "nub" theory. However, it is not an exact science by any means. Google "angle of the dangle theory" and you will get some pictures of boys and girls at early stages of development at around 12 weeks, pretty interesting to me.
Avatar f tn Sometimes painful, but nothing too bad. Sort of like dull period cramps. Well last night i woke up in really bad pain and nothing was helping. My stomach balled up really tight and hurt so bad. My back began to hurt really bad too. Walking made it worse and i tried to lay down on my left side and nothing helped. Finally t went away. But when i woke up this morning, it came back again. What is it? It hurts ridiculously bad.
