During the 4rth week of pregnancy ( the female doesn't know yet about pregnancy as the 4rth week complete she feels some symptoms which described below ) the fertilized ovum now become a sac / embryo and attach to uterine internal wall ( EM) before completing the 4rth week female starts to feel early pregnancy symptoms like

Changes in baby ( embryo ) when just four weeks completed

length of embryo 2-3 mm (0.08-0.12 inches)

The embryo is still tiny and looks like a small dot or a grain of rice. It's during this stage that the embryo undergoes a series of complex developmental changes, including:

- Gastrulation: The formation of the three primary germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm)

- Organogenesis: The beginning of organ formation

Some notable features of the embryo at this stage include:

- The heart starts to beat

- The neural tube forms (which will eventually become the brain and spinal cord)

- The limb buds appear (which will eventually become arms and legs)

- The eyes and ears start to develop

Keep in mind that these measurements and developmental milestones can vary slightly from one embryo to another.

keep visiting for further study we are working on it

Week 5 to 8 (From 29th January to 26 February )
