Fetal Development - Easy Visual Guide

What Is Fetal Development?

Human development is a continuous process that begins when a sperm fertilizes an egg to form a single-celled zygote. Development has two main periods:

Embryonic period - Week 1 to Week 8 (organs form)
Fetal period - Week 9 to Week 38/birth (organs grow and mature)

STAGE 1: Pre-Embryonic Period (Weeks 1-2)

The very beginning - fertilization to implantation

Timetable showing early ovarian follicle development, fertilization, zygote cleavage, morula, blastocyst formation, and implantation across Weeks 1-2

Day	Event
Day 1	Fertilization - zygote forms (Stage 1)
Day 2	Zygote divides (Stage 2)
Day 3-4	Morula forms (Stage 3)
Day 4-5	Early blastocyst → Late blastocyst
Day 6	Implantation begins in uterine wall (Stage 4)
Day 8-14	Bilaminar disc forms; amniotic cavity appears

STAGE 2: Embryonic Period (Weeks 3-8)

All major organs and body structures are laid down

Week-by-Week Highlights:

Week 3:

Primitive streak forms
Trilaminar embryo (3 germ layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm)
Neural plate begins

Week 4:

❤️ Heart begins to beat! (Day 22)
Primitive circulatory system forms
Neural tube closes
Thyroid gland starts developing
Length: ~1.5 mm

Week 5:

Eye and nasal pits forming
Lens pits and optic cups appear
Upper and lower limb buds present
CRL: 5.5-7 mm

Week 6:

Oral and nasal cavities form
Ears appear
Upper lip and nose formed
Digital (finger) rays appear
CRL: 9.5-12.5 mm

STAGE 3: Late Embryonic / Early Fetal Transition (Weeks 7-10)

Timetable of development from Weeks 7 through 10, showing head growth, eyelid formation, external genitalia differentiation, and start of fetal period at Week 9

Week 7: CRL 13 mm - Eyelids forming, finger grooves visible Week 8: Upper limbs longer, bent at elbows; fingers distinct but webbed; external genitalia begin differentiating Week 9: Beginning of the Fetal Period - CRL 45 mm; all major organs present Week 10: Face has more developed profile; ears still low-set; genitalia differentiating

STAGE 4: Fetal Period (Week 9 - Birth)

Focus: rapid growth, weight gain, organ maturation

Ultrasound at 9 Weeks:

Ultrasound image of 9-week fetus showing the amniotic cavity (AC) and chorionic cavity (CC), crown-rump length 4.2 cm

AC = Amniotic Cavity | CC = Chorionic Cavity | CRL = 4.2 cm

9-Week Fetus in Amniotic Sac:

Photograph of 9-week fetus inside amniotic sac with chorionic villi visible, and 3D ultrasound of 10-week fetus showing umbilical cord insertion

Growth Table - Fetal Period at a Glance

Age (Weeks)	Crown-Rump Length	Foot Length	Weight	Key Milestones
9	50 mm	7 mm	8 g	Eyelids closing; intestines in umbilical cord; external genitalia not distinguishable
12	87 mm	14 mm	45 g	Intestines retract into abdomen; urine formation begins; sex distinguishable
16	120 mm	20 mm	110 g	Limbs well-formed; slow eye movements; ear bones hardening
20	160 mm	32 mm	320 g	Skin covered in vernix; eyebrows appear; quickening (mother feels movement)
24	210 mm	40 mm	630 g	Thin wrinkled skin; eyes partially open; may survive if born
28	245 mm	50 mm	1100 g	Eyes open; fat deposited; lungs capable of breathing
32	277 mm	60 mm	1800 g	Skin pink and smooth; toenails present
36	313 mm	68 mm	2900 g	Body plump; ready for birth
38 (full term)	360 mm	75 mm	3400 g	Chest prominent; testes descended (males)

The Three Trimesters - Simple Summary

Trimester	Weeks	What Happens
1st	1-12	All organs form; embryo becomes fetus; highest risk for birth defects
2nd	13-26	Rapid growth; movement felt; sex visible on ultrasound
3rd	27-38	Weight gain; lung maturation; brain development; preparation for birth

The Three Germ Layers - What They Become

Germ Layer	Formed	Gives Rise To
Ectoderm	Week 3	Skin, brain, spinal cord, eyes, ears
Mesoderm	Week 3	Heart, kidneys, bones, muscles, blood
Endoderm	Week 3	Lungs, GI tract, liver, pancreas, thyroid

Key Terms Made Simple

Zygote - fertilized egg (Day 1)
Morula - solid ball of cells (~16 cells)
Blastocyst - hollow ball that implants in uterus
Embryo - Week 1-8 (organs forming)
Fetus - Week 9-birth (organs growing)
CRL - Crown-Rump Length (how we measure size)
Teratogen - any agent that causes birth defects (e.g., alcohol, certain drugs, rubella virus)
