By 14 weeks after conception fingerprints have already formed on an unborn child's hands.
Finger prints are formed in the gestation period in the womb. they form from the movements a baby makes in the uterus. This is why even twins fingerprints aren't the same.
Fingerprint ridges are formed during the third to fourth month of fetal development.
Fingerprints aren't determined by genetics, but by growth conditions in the womb. (some say it's the amniotic sac, some say it's the inside of the uterus) Either way, it's different enough even for twins for their fingerprints to end up personal, and not shared.

I believe that fetal fingerprints are fully formed by 12 weeks/3months of gestation. Fingerprints are actually created by fetal movements - as the young fetus moves within the uterus, its skin shifts, forming the ridges of its fingerprints. This is the reason why no two people have the same fingerprints, even identical twins.

None. Fingerprints are not a genetic trait. They're formed in utero
No, it is not possible to find fingerprints in a vagina of a living person. Fingerprints are formed by friction ridges on the skin and are not present inside the body.

Yes, fingerprints are formed by the unique combination of ridge patterns and minutiae. Ridge characteristics refer to the ridges and furrows that form the overall pattern of a fingerprint, such as loops, whorls, and arches. Minutiae are the specific unique features within the ridge patterns, such as ridge endings, bifurcations, and dot-like formations. The combination of these ridge characteristics and minutiae make each fingerprint unique and identifiable.
a baby's fingerprint is already formed, but the ridges in the skin are not as sdistinct as they will be as the infant gets older
People have always had fingerprints. Also, everyones fingerprints are diffrent.
