How big is the fetus in the second month of pregnancy

Being a father or mother is a happy thing, because it means there is a child of your own in this world. Especially during the mother's pregnancy, she can directly feel the heartbeat of the fetus in her belly, which is also a very touching thing. And pregnant mothers are particularly concerned about the baby's physical health, so how big is the baby when the pregnancy is two months?

How big is the fetus at two months of pregnancy

When the pregnancy enters the second month, the fetal embryo already looks very much like a baby. When the two months are about to end, the hands and feet have been formed, and the eyes, ears, nose tip and tongue have also been formed. Basically all the major body organs are in place this month. So how big is the fetus when the pregnancy is two months old? Let’s take a look.

The fetus at two months of pregnancy is about 0.4-1.2cm long and weighs about 2.5-6g. His eyes, mouth, and ears have outlines, his nose is bulging, and there are wrinkles on his outer ears, taking on the appearance of a human face. During this period, pregnant women may experience early pregnancy reactions such as dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Early pregnancy reactions have just begun and generally last for two months. If the pregnant woman's oral cavity also changes during pregnancy, the health of the oral cavity will also affect the healthy growth of the fetus.

The fetus's auditory organs have begun to develop and the nervous system has also been initially formed in the second month of pregnancy. So starting from the end of this month, you can listen to some beautiful and soft music. 1-2 times a day, 5-10 minutes each time. It can not only stimulate the pregnant mother's happy mood, but also give adaptive stimulation to the fetus's hearing, which is a good start for the further implementation of music prenatal education and auditory prenatal education.

Symptoms of a two-month pregnancy

At two months of pregnancy, the embryo's various complex organs begin to grow. The heart and brain have developed very complexly, folds begin to appear on the eyelids, the nose gradually straightens, the teeth and palate begin to develop, the ears continue to take shape, and the arms become bent at the elbows. There is a slight amount of webbing between the fingers and toes. Because the bone marrow has not yet formed, the liver temporarily produces a large number of red blood cells until the bone marrow matures and takes over its work.

Starting from the second month of pregnancy, the fetus will grow rapidly, at a speed no less than the development of the heart and brain in the early pregnancy, and will show obvious outlines within a few weeks. By the 8th week of the pregnancy, the "baby" will have grown to about 3 cm and weigh about 4 grams; the placenta and umbilical cord will have formed; the skin will be as thin as paper, and the blood vessels will be clearly visible; the head, body, limbs and feet can be distinguished with the naked eye; it will be able to do small movements such as kicking, stretching, raising its hands and moving its arms - even though you can't detect it at all.
