Yes, indeed. At that age, the fetus brain is growing unbelievably fast, and the brain's neurons are making connections already.
At thirteen weeks the fetus is fully formed and as long as your doctor knows you are pregnant when prescribing he/she feels thst the benefits outweigh any problems.
Yes. The fetus can die and there wont be any cramps for a couple of weeks.
This answer applies to any creature with both brain and heart. The brain is where both conscious and subconscious activity occurs, and this activity sends commands to the vital organs.
At 28 weeks gestation a fetus is considered viable, meaning with medical intervention if born alive at this time it has a good chance of survival. Therefore if any child is born still at 28 weeks gestation, they deserve to be buried and mourned.
An EEG is an electroencephalogram which is a device that measures brain activity. If there any problems in the brain they can be seen on an EEG. The brain produces electrical impulses and there are different patterns of impulses. It is this different patterns that are measured with and EEG that can show doctors what might be wrong.
The normal amount of fluid in a fetus's brain is primarily found in the ventricles, where cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulates. Typically, the ventricular system in a healthy fetus contains about 2-5 milliliters of CSF. Any significant increase beyond this range could indicate conditions such as hydrocephalus, which requires further evaluation. Regular prenatal ultrasounds help monitor these fluid levels for any abnormalities.
My son died at twenty one weeks, and I still mourn...I suspect for most women it would be like the loss of any child.
No, sperm is not harmful to a fetus during sex. The cervix acts as a barrier to protect the uterus and fetus from any external substances, including sperm. In fact, it is safe for pregnant women to engage in sexual activity unless advised otherwise by a healthcare provider.
At 6 weeks post-conception, the fetus looks like a little blob - the spinal column has started to stand out and you might make out the eye sockets starting to fold back in. Otherwise, it looks like any vertebrate fetus and is not visually identifiable as human.
The general consensus of whether a person is living or dead is dependent on if there is any brain activity. Given that you had sufficient brain activity to be able to type this question I can safely infer that you were alive at the time you wrote your question.
Babies get their genes from both parents. Once the pregnancy starts, the fetus cannot get any genes from any additional partners.
Epilepsy is caused by unusual electrical activity in the brain. Everyone has electrical activity in their brain, but if this is disrupted in any way, a seizure can occur. If someone who has been on drugs has done some damage to their brain, there is the potential for them to have seizures, so it can happen.
