Is the fetus formed at two and a half months?

Generally speaking, the fetus is not stable in the early stages of pregnancy, and expectant mothers are prone to early pregnancy reactions, but as long as they survive the first few months, they can generally give birth safely. The fetus is only the size of a soybean in the first few weeks. So, has the fetus taken shape after about two and a half months? Let's have a simple understanding and understanding of this issue. I hope the following points will be helpful to everyone!

Is the fetus formed around 2 and a half months?

Pregnancy can be divided into three stages: The first three months: the critical period of baby's development, body cells have been transformed into a detailed, tangible, but not mature person. The second three months: The fetus grows and develops rapidly, increasing by about 5 cm each month. Eventually, the baby will have facial expressions, be able to swallow, have an auditory system, and can kick its feet. Last three months: In the middle and late March, the fetus gains weight rapidly, with an average birth weight of about 3.4 kg. Babies around 2 and a half months old are not yet fully formed. It is too ugly to judge whether the baby's development is normal just by appearance. B-ultrasound examination should be used to judge the baby's development status. From the fourth to the seventh month of pregnancy, pregnant women can clearly feel that the weight of the fetus has gradually increased compared with the previous month, and the hair, eyebrows, nails, and hair have begun to grow gradually, and obvious fetal movements will appear in the fifth month. The baby learns to suck his thumb, and other organs of the body begin to develop faster at this time. In the seventh month, the skin of the fetus appears bright red, and fingerprints and footprints have been fully formed. Until the ninth month, the fetus moves to the lower abdomen and turns around, and is ready to be born.

After the fetus is fully developed, B-ultrasound can be used to check whether the fetus is healthy. B-ultrasound can observe the growth and development of the fetus, and provide a more accurate basis for early diagnosis of congenital epidermal malformations and other diseases of the fetus. Cleft lip and palate, cleft spine, brain, kidney, heart and other abnormalities can be detected immediately, so that treatment can be carried out as soon as possible, increasing the chances of good birth and upbringing.

What is the purpose of a mid-pregnancy test?

If a woman has a mid-term check-up, it is usually around 16 weeks of pregnancy, which is the fourth month of pregnancy. Pregnant women should have a check-up every four weeks at 16 weeks, 20 weeks, 24 weeks, and 28 weeks. During this period, B-ultrasound examinations, four-dimensional color ultrasound examinations, Down syndrome examinations, etc. are required. The main purpose is to check whether the fetus has deformities, defects and other symptoms, and whether the pregnant mother has pregnancy symptoms. At this time, it is necessary to consider taking tests such as blood pressure, weight, uterine fundus height, fetal abdominal circumference, fetal heart rate, etc. The most important of these is the mid-pregnancy Down syndrome blood screening, and it is also necessary to analyze the first pregnancy examination.

When women do Down syndrome screening during pregnancy, they should pay attention to not eating or drinking after midnight the day before, and then conduct the test on an empty stomach. In order to select key subjects with a certain disease, it is possible to determine in advance whether the baby will have growth and development abnormalities. Of course, B-ultrasound examination is not necessary for every pregnancy check-up, but if pregnant women have symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain, the frequency of B-ultrasound examination should be increased. In addition, it is necessary to check for abnormalities in pregnancy. It is recommended that pregnant women cooperate with the doctor's arrangement for corresponding examinations!
