  1. FROM CONCEPTION TO BIRTH

  2. KEY TERMS • Amniotic fluid – clear liquid in sac that the fetus develops in; protects fetus from injury. • Placenta- barrier between the mother and child; receives nutrients, passes out waste, etc. • Umbilical cord – attaches the embryo/fetus to placenta • Episiotomy – surgical cut in area to prevent tearing.

  3. PRE-NATAL DEVELOPMENT

  4. 4 weeks: 6 weeks : 8 weeks: Heart is first detected Eyes are visible; ¼ inch long Limbs well developed; face recognizable. Embryo: Conception to 8 Weeks

  5. 9 weeks: 12 weeks: 15 weeks: 21 weeks: 26 weeks: Essential body parts accounted for All major organs formed May tell gender Feels movement Testicles moves into scrotum Fetus: 9-40 Weeks

  6. 27 weeks: 34 weeks: 37 weeks: Hiccups felt, somersaults, kicking Born between 34-37 weeks can survive Full term baby FETUS cont……

  7. MOTHER’S DEVELOPMENT

  8. FIRST TRIMESTER: 1-3 MONTHS • Tender Breasts • Nausea • Weight increase

  9. SECOND TRIMESTER: 4-6 MONTHS • Looks pregnant • Heart rate increases • Energy increases

  10. THIRD TRIMESTER: 7-9 MONTHS • Skin stretches over abdomen • Slight contractions felt • Pressure on bladder • Fatigue, back pain, heart burn, and breathlessness

  11. ONSET OF LABOR

  12. 1ST STAGE • Head of fetus drops lower, easing pressure on mother’s lungs and abdomen • Mucus plug expelled • Uterine contractions stronger and more regular • Sac ruptures and fluid leaks out • Cervix begins to dilate (.5 in./hr) to 10 cm or 4in.

  13. 2ND STAGE • Begins after full dilation of cervix • Mother feels strong urge to push • Baby emerges from the birth canal

  14. 3RD STAGE • After the baby has been delivered, cutting the umbilical cord separates the baby from the placenta. • When the placenta has separated from the wall of the uterus, it is eased out of the vaginal opening.

  15. PROBLEMS DURING AND AFTER PREGNANCY

  16. DURING • Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) – a set of defects that affect a fetus that has been exposed to alcohol during pregnancy. • Gestational diabetes – diabetes during pregnancy.

  17. FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME

  18. BREECH BIRTH • Frank breech - the baby's bottom comes first, and his or her legs are flexed at the hip and extended at the knees (with feet near the ears). 65-70% of breech babies are in the frank breech position. • Complete breech - the baby's hips and knees are flexed so that the baby is sitting cross-legged, with feet beside the bottom. • Footling breech - one or both feet come first, with the bottom at a higher position. This is rare at term but relatively common with premature fetuses. • Kneeling breech - the baby is in a kneeling position, with one or both legs extended at the hips and flexed at the knees. This is extremely rare.

  19. AFTER • Postpartum depression – depression that occurs after birth that can result from physical changes, emotional factors, and lifestyle influences.
