prenatal development

Prenatal development is the process from conception to birth, during which a fertilized egg grows into a baby. It occurs in three main stages: the first trimester involves forming vital organs and body structures; the second trimester sees rapid growth, better movement, and development of facial features; the third trimester is characterized by significant weight gain, maturation of organs, and increased activity, preparing the baby for life outside the womb. This complex process is influenced by genetics, health, and environment, ensuring the baby's proper growth and development before birth.
