Development of Human Baby (Links)
The Merck Manuals: Stages of Development
A baby goes through several stages of development, beginning as a fertilized egg. The egg develops into a blastocyst, an embryo, then a fetus.

Mayo Clinic: Pregnancy Week by Week
First trimester
The first few months of pregnancy — the first trimester — are marked by rapid changes for both you and your baby.
For you, first trimester physical changes may include breast tenderness, fatigue and nausea. Your emotions may range from excitement to anxiety. For your baby, the first trimester is a time of rapid growth and development. Your baby's brain, spinal cord and other organs begin to form, and your baby's heart begins to beat. Your baby's fingers and toes even begin to take shape.

Fetal Growth: Conception to Birth
You're pregnant. Congratulations! You are curious how big your developing baby is, what your baby looks like as it grows inside you, and when you'll feel it move, right? Take a peek inside the womb to see how a fetus develops from month to month.

Upon arrival in the uterus, the zygote fuses itself to the uterine wall. At this point, cells of the zygote differentiate into two distinct types
* Embryoblast Cells - These cells continually divide into what will become the embryo, the baby itself
* Trophoblast Cells - These cells form the placenta, that form against the uterine wall

IUPUI Human Reproduction and Development Notes
Week 9- Week 40 (Fetus)
After 12 weeks or so, the baby's development is largely "finished" - except brain and lung development
The fetus just spends much of the 2nd and 3rd trimesters just growing (and doing various flip-turns and kicks inside the amniotic fluid)

The Visible Embryo
The Visible Embryo is a visual guide through fetal development from fertilization through pregnancy to birth. As the most profound physiologic changes occur in the "first trimester" of pregnancy, these Carnegie stages are given prominence on the birth spiral.

CDC: Having a Healthy Pregnancy
Not all birth defects can be prevented, but a woman can take some actions that increase her chance of having a healthy baby. Many birth defects happen very early in pregnancy, sometimes before a woman even knows she is pregnant. Remember that about half of all pregnancies are unplanned.

Medline Plus: Bringing in Baby
Early, regular prenatal healthcare is a must for mothers and babies during pregnancy. Mom (and dad!) get to discuss all the important issues with their health care providers, from nutrition and what to expect during birth, to basic skills for caring for your newborn.
