A Baby Growing In The Mothers Womb

Around the 20th day after conception a baby's brain, spinal cord, and nervous system are already established. The 21st day the baby's heart begins to beat. At 35 days five fingers can be distinguished on the baby's hand. Around 40 days brain waves can be detected.

At the 8th week everything is now present that will be found in a fully developed adult. By the 13th week it is apparent that the baby is a boy or a girl.

The baby can hear by the 5th month of pregnancy and if born at this age children have lived out side the mothers womb. When you are 7 months pregnant the baby's fours senses are working; the baby's vision, hearing, taste, and touch are all intact.

The average pregnancy is 280 days, form the first day of the mother's last menstrual period until birth.

At the Christian Child Placement Service we know that choosing the best option with your pregnancy is a very difficult decision. We want to provide information on all of your options so you can make a fully informed decision.
