Maternity & Kid's Care
"Maternity is a matter of fact, paternity is a matter of opinion."
The period of foetus extends from the end of the second month of pregnancy until birth. During this time, the various body systems, which had their origin in the earlier stage become well developed and begin to function. By the end of the third month, the foetus us about three inches long. Muscles become well developed and spontaneous movements of the arms and legs may be observed. The foetus’s sex can be distinguished easily. By the end of 16 week, the mother can feel the movements of the baby. By 24 weeks of age, the foetus is capable of swallowing and sucking. By that time, the foetus’s eyelids have developed and are functional.
The foetal age of twenty eight weeks is an important one. By this age, the child’s nervous, circulatory and other bodily systems have become sufficiently well structured. The baby weighs nearly one kilogram and measure 38 centimeters and the baby can blink his eyes and can spot eyelashes. The baby can see the light that filters in to the uterus. There is also billions of neurons developed in the brain and gaining more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world. So that if born prematurely it can survive. As the foetus becomes older, it becomes more active as well.
