Week Description
Around 7 Weeks after Conception
(Counting from first day of last menstrual period)
Please keep in mind that each pregnancy is different and the growth rates vary from individual to individual. This information is based on general development. If you have any questions, please check with your gynecologist.
Fetal Development
The basic structure of the eye is developing in formation and the tongue also begins to develop. The fingers and thumb have appeared but are short and webbed. The bones also start forming.
Multiples: Your babies are developing just like singleton babies. Each baby is about one gram in weight and about the same size as singleton babies.
Maternal Changes
Your breasts may feel fuller now and very sensitive. Wearing a supportive bra can ease some of the tenderness. Your waistline may be growing and you may experience some heartburn and indigestion as your body adjusts to pregnancy hormones.
