Watch a baby's month to month growth from conception to birth.
Congratulations on becoming pregnant! We are sure you are curious about how your pregnancy will progress, and how your baby will develop week to week over the next few months. In this slideshow we will look inside the womb to see how a baby develops through the first, second, and third trimesters.Step one of conception is when the sperm penetrates the egg to complete the genetic make-up of a human fetus. At this moment , the sex and genetic make-up of the fetus begins.
At 24 weeks, the baby may weigh 1.4 pounds and can respond to sounds. Doppler studies show the sound response by measuring movement and heartbeat rates. Sometimes the baby will develop hiccups that the mother can feel! The baby's inner ear canals are developed at 24 weeks, so researchers speculate the fetus can sense its position in the uterus.
