3 weeks.
The placenta attaches to the uterus 4-5 days after conception (the sperm and egg meeting). It is fully functional by 12 weeks.
At 5 weeks of gestation, the embryo is still in the early stages of development, and while the placenta is not fully formed, the initial structures that will develop into the placenta are starting to form. The placenta begins to develop from the trophoblast layer of the embryo and will continue to grow and mature throughout the first trimester. By this time, the placenta is providing some early nutritional support and facilitating gas exchange, although it is not yet fully functional.
Nutrients begin to pass through the placenta to the developing fetus around the end of the first trimester, typically around 10-12 weeks of gestation. During this time, the placental structure is fully formed and functional, allowing for the exchange of essential substances such as glucose, amino acids, and vitamins. This process is crucial for the growth and development of the fetus throughout the remainder of pregnancy.

Mod Podge typically takes about 2-3 weeks to fully cure and become completely dry.
At about 3 weeks, they will be fully weaned/independent.
You may get a negative test as what is being tested is the hormone produced to maintain the pregnancy until the placenta is fully formed. The placenta is formed by about 13 weeks and HCG gradually reduces. some may still be detectable but a negative test does not mean you are not pregnant.
A posterior placenta grade 2 means that the placenta is located closer to the back. This is commonly seen at 30 weeks of pregnancy and is considered normal.
trophoblasts/chorionic villi and the uterus form the placenta
A low placenta at 12 weeks, often referred to as low-lying placenta, means that the placenta is positioned near or over the cervix. This condition is relatively common in early pregnancy and may resolve as the uterus grows and the placenta moves upward. While it can lead to complications in some cases, many women with a low placenta go on to have healthy pregnancies. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for monitoring and guidance.
Yes, it is normal for the placenta to mature as the pregnancy progresses, particularly around 32 weeks. Maturation is a natural part of the placental development process, and it indicates that the placenta is functioning properly to support the growing fetus. However, it's essential to monitor the placenta's health and function, so any concerns should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
The first time you get your shot it usually takes about two weeks, to become fully effective.
