Actually, yes.
Fetal development is the last seven months of development in a human, so they are more likely to look like humans at any given point.
The embryonic stage of development is in the beginning when the human is more likely to appear similar to other developing mammals. Differences become apparent only during later stages. Images of human & pig embryos (for comparative purposes) are available on the web, so that you can see the similarities for yourself.
One is genetically a pig, the other is genetically a human. It's all about them number of chromosomes....
An embryo during the late stages of development is known as a fetus.
The development of a fertilized egg starts out as an embryo though after 8 weeks it is legally considered a fetus.
No. The embryo and the fetus are two separate stages in a baby's prenatal development.
Embryo, between the 3rd and 8th week. Fetus, after the 8th week
Once the zygote becomes an embryo it starts developing all of its organs, nervous system etc. then after 8 weeks of development everything is there so it becomes a fetus, and the fetus just grows bigger.

fertilized egg,embryo, and fetus
At the first cell division of the zygote (fertilized egg), according to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo
Zygote-> Embryo -> Fetus
Humans don't ever really look very pig like during development. There are early periods in development where pig and human embryos look similar but by the time human and pig fetuses have developed to the point of looking even somewhat like their future selves they in no way resemble each other.
Well, it seems like after the 8th week it's called a fetus, but before it's just an embryo.
Prenatal development occurs in three main stages: the germinal stage (first two weeks after conception), the embryonic stage (weeks 3-8), and the fetal stage (weeks 9-birth). During these stages, the fertilized egg undergoes cell division, differentiation, and organ formation, leading to the development of a fetus.

A Foetus is formed by the growth and development of an embryo.

In the seventh week of the embryo's development
