What is the size of the fetus at nine weeks of pregnancy?

During the ninth week of pregnancy, the amount of leucorrhea will gradually increase and become thicker, but the leucorrhea at this time generally has no odor and will not cause vulvar itching. The color of the leucorrhea is light yellow. If the leucorrhea has a fishy odor or changes color, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible and receive appropriate treatment. In the ninth month of pregnancy, the fetus is about the size of a grape, and the various organs of the body are slowly taking shape.

Many expectant mothers want to see a picture of the fetus at 9 weeks of pregnancy. They are curious about what the baby looks like. The fetus at 9 weeks of pregnancy continues to develop rapidly. During this week, the diaphragm will develop, separating the thoracic cavity and abdominal cavity which were originally connected. The volume of the abdominal cavity will gradually increase, taking in the intestines that were previously outside the abdominal cavity. The little tail that was dragging behind the body was also gone. Judging from the general outline, the fetus has already taken on the appearance of a human being, and has officially transformed from an embryo into a fetus. You should be very happy, right? This means that the baby is gradually growing up.

At this stage, the baby's head is still relatively large, accounting for 1/4 of its body length. The facial features are becoming more and more complete, and the eyelids cover the eyes. However, the eyelid muscles and nerve functions of the fetus are not yet fully developed, so the opening and closing of the eyes cannot be controlled for the time being, but they are slowly forming. The nose grows slowly. The ears are also raised, but they are only temporarily on the neck and have not yet reached the head. The baby's arms are now able to cross in front of the chest, and the legs are long enough to cross in front of the body. The fingers and toes are becoming more and more distinct. The skin became translucent, like a layer of frosted glass protecting the world inside the body. At this time, the fetus is 22-30 mm long. In the womb, the fetus will constantly change its posture. Isn’t it exciting to see your cute baby?

Although the amount of leucorrhea will gradually increase during the ninth week of pregnancy, you don't need to be too nervous at this time. As long as you pay attention to care and ensure the cleanliness of your private parts, there will be no infection. The ninth week of pregnancy is a critical period for fetal growth and development. Many fetal malformations or threatened miscarriages are caused by improper care at this time.
