Start off as the size of a pea. At 8 weeks all body organs begin forming and by 12 weeks they are fully formed. By the end of the fetal development they're 6-8 lbs and 19-22 in. 

Care Considerations : 
Emphasize care of the mother ( developing humans are vulnerable to environmental factors ). Birth defects can occur if the mother inhales toxins, or consumes alcohol, nicotine, or drugs. Address the mothers unhealthy habits. ]]> 2023-04-20 19:16:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jbright0689/a49ru43qy0uh3anb/wish/2562323901 jbright0689 https://padlet.com/jbright0689/a49ru43qy0uh3anb/wish/2562333600 Physical Development : 
Their birth weight triples or quadruples, teeth begin to erupt, length increases. Their muscular and nervous systems grow and over time they're able to raise their head, turn, and roll over.

Erikson's Stage of Development : Trust vs. Mistrust. Infants are dependent on their caregivers for survival. If appropriate care is received, ( food, warmth, physical affection ) they will develop trust in their caregivers. If they fail to receive appropriate care, they will develop distrust toward their caregivers. 

Care Considerations : Physical affection, tracking growth patterns, parents involved in care. ]]> 2023-04-20 19:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jbright0689/a49ru43qy0uh3anb/wish/2562333600 jbright0689 https://padlet.com/jbright0689/a49ru43qy0uh3anb/wish/2562426191 Physical Development :
