The document discusses prenatal development from conception through birth. It describes the three main periods of prenatal development: germinal (conception to 2 weeks), embryonic (3 to 8 weeks), and fetal (9 weeks until birth). During the embryonic period, major organs develop and by 8 weeks the embryo is less than 2 inches long. In the fetal period, sex organs develop and brain development is significant. By 22 weeks, a fetus is considered viable and able to survive outside the womb with medical care. The document also discusses factors that can impact prenatal development like toxins, illnesses, and maternal experiences and behaviors.
Berger ls 7e ch 4
Prenatal development occurs in three periods: germinal (0-2 weeks), embryonic (3-8 weeks), and fetal (9 weeks until birth). During the germinal period, conception occurs and the placenta forms for nourishment. In the embryonic period, major organs develop by 8 weeks when the embryo is less than 2 inches. During the fetal period, all body parts are present by 9 weeks, brain development occurs significantly, and viability is usually reached at 22 weeks. Risks to the developing fetus include toxins, illnesses, certain agents, pollution, and maternal stress or depression which can cause birth defects or impair development. The birth process culminates with the newborn's first minutes assessed using the Apgar

Prenatal development: germinal, embryonic &fetal period; Factors that can have a serious negative impact on the development of the unborn: maternal health, radiation, maternal nutrition, medication and drugs, age of the parents, diseases in the pregnant woman and the emotional state of the mother.
Prenatal
Prenatal development is influenced by genes and chromosomes from both parents that are passed down during conception. The zygote contains the genetic material from both the egg and sperm that will determine the traits of the developing fetus. Multiple factors can threaten healthy prenatal growth, including teratogens, the mother's health and lifestyle during pregnancy, and environmental influences. Genetics and environment both play a role in shaping development, personality, and risk of psychological disorders.
Pre natal period
The document discusses the prenatal development period from conception to birth. It is divided into three trimesters and important organs are formed. Hazards during this period like malnutrition, smoking, drinking and stress can negatively impact the fetus's development and lead to physical and psychological problems that persist after birth. Irregularities during prenatal development are often the root cause of psychological issues individuals face as adults. The prenatal period is very important as a child's future behavior is determined during this time.

fetal movements of the baby is the best sign to acess the health condition of the fetes,During your pregnancy, feeling your baby move gives you reassurance of his or her well being.
If you notice your baby is moving less than usual or if you have noticed a change in the pattern of movements, it may be the first sign that your baby is unwell and therefore it is essential that you contact your midwife or local maternity unit immediately so that your baby’s wellbeing can be assessed.
Responsible Parenthood
This document discusses responsible parenthood and family planning. It defines responsible parenthood as parents meeting the needs of their family and children. Family planning allows couples to choose the timing and spacing of pregnancies. The document outlines natural family planning methods like fertility awareness and artificial methods like birth control pills, IUDs, implants, and permanent sterilization. It notes benefits and effectiveness of different natural and artificial family planning techniques.
Prenatal development
Prenatal development occurs in three stages - the germinal stage, embryonic stage, and fetal stage. In the germinal stage from weeks 1-2, the zygote divides into cells and implants in the uterus. The embryonic stage from weeks 3-8 sees development of major organs and gender determination. The fetal stage from week 9 until birth refines organs for extrauterine life. Common issues that can impact development include genetic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, maternal diseases, drugs/toxins, and malnutrition. Screening and some prenatal treatments exist to assess and address certain risks and conditions.
Factors influencing fetal growth and development
This document defines growth and development and discusses fetal growth assessment. It defines small for gestational age (SGA) and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and describes the two types of IUGR. Factors that affect fetal growth are genetic factors, sex, hormones, fetal growth factors, and placental and maternal factors. Methods for assessing fetal growth and maturity include physical examination, ultrasounds to measure fetal size and anatomy, amniotic fluid analysis to examine lung maturity, and biochemical markers in amniotic fluid and maternal serum.
Reproductive system
The female reproductive system is studied in the medical specialty of gynecology. Pregnancy is divided into three trimesters - the first from weeks 1 to 12 where extreme tiredness and breast changes occur, the second from weeks 13 to 28 where nausea subsides and the abdomen expands, and the third from week 28 to birth. The uterus is the pear-shaped organ where the developing fetus resides, with its inner lining thickening monthly in preparation for a potential pregnancy.
Prenatal development birth
Prenatal development occurs in three stages: germinal, embryonic, and fetal. During the germinal stage, the fertilized egg implants in the uterus and begins cell division. In the embryonic stage, organs begin to form through organogenesis. The fetal period begins at 8 weeks when organogenesis is complete and the fetus continues growing and developing until birth. Risks during prenatal development include teratogens like alcohol, drugs, and infections from the mother. Critical periods of development include implantation and organogenesis when the fetus is most vulnerable. The birth process involves three stages of labor and delivery options like Lamaze or home birth. Assessments of the neonate include Apgar scores and routine tests are done to prevent issues.

Family planning refers to methods that allow women to control their pregnancy timing, such as hormonal birth control, condoms, and implants. It gives women informed choices about if and when to have children. The advantages of family planning include reducing unplanned pregnancies and abortions, allowing women to pursue educational and career goals without financial burden of an unexpected pregnancy. Potential disadvantages are side effects of hormonal birth control like weight gain, headaches, and rare but serious issues like blood clots. Child spacing is part of family planning and means considering the optimal time between having children. Advantages of child spacing include older siblings helping younger ones and less fighting over toys due to different interests from an age gap.

4.1 What Are Prenatal and Neonatal Stages of Development?
When considering theimportance of child development, it is common to think of contexts that begin during infancy and continue through toddlerhood, including nutrition, learning, and building relationships. However, a child’s developmental journey truly begins at conception. Chapter 2 explored the importance of genetics and experiences during the time before birth. The period from conception through birth is called the prenatal stage. During this time, the mother and her support team are ultimately responsible for providing the child with everything needed to grow physically and mentally. They are equally as responsible for protecting the child from harm during this period. The prenatal period is crucial for preparing the child for exposure to the outside world.
The next developmental stage in this journey begins immediately after birth and continues through the first 4 weeks of life. This is called the neonatal stage. Babies are especially vulnerable during this time period. Every detail about how they eat, sleep, and interact with other people can have huge implications for their future development. These implications are important for early childhood caregivers to recognize, regardless of the age at which the child begins receiving care.

4.2 Prenatal Development
What occurs from conception to birth is a complex and intricate process. In discussing this process, we focus first on how conception occurs, the distinction between gestational age and fetal age, and the phases of prenatal development.
Conception
Each month in the female body, an egg is released from the ovary as part of the reproductive cycle. The process of releasing the egg, or ovum, is called ovulation. Ovulation typically occurs halfway through a woman’s menstrual cycle, approximately 14 days after menstruation begins. After ovulation, the ovum travels down the fallopian tube toward the uterus (see Figure 4.1). On a typical month, the ovum continues its journey to the uterus alone and is flushed out along with the uterine lining in the menstruation process. However, if the woman has recently had intercourse, or has intercourse after the ovum is released and before it is flushed out of the body, the process can potentially be altered. The male reproductive cell, called the sperm, is designed to penetrate the wall of the recently released ovum. If a sperm successfully penetrates the ovum wall, it results in fertilization. Sperm can live in the female body for roughly 3–5 days, and a released ovum is viable for fertilization for anywhere from 24 to 48 hours after it is released. This means that every month there is a small, but significant, window of time in which a woman can become pregnant. Even if intercourse occurs days before ovulation takes place, fertilization i ...

The document discusses the psychological and physical effects that a mother experiences during each trimester of pregnancy. In the first trimester, mothers often experience mood swings, anxiety about miscarriage and the health of the baby. Physically, they may have morning sickness, fatigue, and breast changes. The second trimester brings back pain, weight gain, and nausea. By the third trimester, mothers face fears around labor and delivery along with symptoms like hemorrhoids and shortness of breath. Throughout pregnancy, maintaining good nutrition, exercise, and paying attention to red flag symptoms is important for the health of the mother and baby.
Pregnancy- Human Development
This document outlines the psychological, physical, and developmental changes that occur during pregnancy for both the mother and baby. For the mother, common psychological effects include mood swings, anxiety, and body image issues. Physically, the body undergoes changes like weight gain and breast enlargement. Each trimester comes with its own set of symptoms. For the baby, development occurs in germinal, embryonic, and fetal stages. Key milestones are noted for weeks 9-38, such as organ formation, movement, and growth. Maintaining nutrition and exercise is important for both mother and baby's health.

Prenatal Development and Newborn Period-Siegler.ppt
Prenatal development involves complex processes that transform a zygote into an embryo and fetus. The environment, including teratogens like alcohol and cigarettes, can impact development. A fetus's own behaviors, like movement and breathing, contribute to maturation. While sensory learning is limited, evidence suggests fetuses can learn through habituation. Newborns spend much time sleeping or crying, and their states of arousal influence exploration. Low birth weight and poverty increase risks, but resilience is possible even in high-risk contexts.
Preventives in obs pedia and geriaterics
This document discusses preventive measures in obstetrics and pediatrics. It covers antenatal, intranatal, and postnatal care including the importance of breastfeeding and monitoring infant growth and development. Key aspects include immunizing mothers and children, providing nutrition education, treating common issues like malnutrition and infection, and ensuring clean delivery practices. The overall goal is to promote maternal and child health through preventive healthcare.
Fetus GROWTH AND ITS INFLUENCE ON DRUGS
The document discusses fetal growth and development and how drugs can influence it. It describes the typical stages of fetal growth from the pre-embryonic stage through the fetal stage. Key aspects of growth are covered for each trimester of pregnancy. Factors that can affect fetal growth like genetics, maternal health, nutrition, and drug use are examined. The risks of drugs passing from the mother to the fetus are summarized, including potential direct harm to the fetus or indirect issues from reduced blood flow or oxygen. Strict evaluation of drug safety during pregnancy is needed given limited research.
Pregnancy steps
This document discusses various aspects of pregnancy based on the author's personal experience of being pregnant. It covers stages of fetal growth, effects on family members, health risks for mother and baby, and societal/ethical issues. The author learned about emotional changes in early pregnancy and physical changes as the baby grew. Family members were supportive but it increased responsibilities. Risks from substances like alcohol mandated caution. Issues like teenage pregnancy, abortion, and fertility treatments require societal understanding and support for those facing challenges. The author aims to educate others based on this learning.
Pregnacy stages

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
