5 Amazing Fetal Development Videos...

...That Moved Me To Tears

Don't be surprised if they bring tears to your eyes. They did to mine. Children are true miracles and time goes by so quickly. Watching these fetal development videos and thinking back on my own pregnancies and my childrens' years as babies, make me want to stop time. And to be the best, most loving mom always!

If you are still pregnant, place a hand on your belly and watch the development inside your womb from sperm to baby. If you are not pregnant, watch anyway.

Did you know that:

• Already 18 days after conception, your baby's heart begins to beat.
• 7 weeks pregnant, your baby can move his arms
• 42 days after conception, it is possible to register brain waves in your baby
• At 11 weeks pregnant, all body systems are already developed and your baby even has tiny finger nails.
• At 16 weeks, your baby has his very own, unique finger prints
• At 17 weeks pregnant, REM sleep is recorded, which may indicate that your baby is already having dreams.
• By 24 weeks pregnant, your baby can hear your voice and remember it!
• 28 weeks pregnant, your baby has more than 95% chance of surviving if being born.
• When your baby has completed the 37th week of pregnancy, he is considered full-term, if being born. By then development is completed.

(Just a clarification; the weeks of pregnancy mentioned in this video refer to fetal age, i.e. pregnancy weeks measured from conception, not from the first day of your last menstruation. So for example fetal age of 6 weeks, is the same as being 8 weeks pregnant they way your pregnancy progress is measured by your midwife.)
