PREGNANCY Pregnancy is the time that a foetus spends in its mother’s womb.

Pregnancy lasts for about nine months.

2 WEEKS: FERTILISATION When a sperm from a man joins with an egg from a

woman, they are transformed into an embryo.

3 WEEKS: IM

PLANTATION Once the embryo reaches the uterus, it searches for a nice place to implant. 

1ST TRIMESTERAfter fertilization and implantation, the baby grows quickly. At first it’s just an embryo, consisting of two layers of cells from which all its organs and body parts will develop. Soon the embryo is about the size of bean and constantly moving. Their heart is beating quickly and their intestines are forming. Their earlobes, eyelids, mouth, and nose are also taking shape.

2ND MONTH OF PREGNANCY The embryo starts growing and taking the shape of a human

body. The heart is one of the first organs to develop.
