Ultrasound: Bouncing around the womb
Here’s baby! See a close-up of baby moving around in his mother’s uterus. Discover the stages of pregnancy with this 3-D ultrasound. Count baby’s fingers and toes, and track his tiniest movements in split-screen imaging.
Fingers can be seen by 8 weeks of fetal development, and the toes will begin to grow soon after this stage. The arms and legs will be lengthened, and the developing embryo can swim gracefully. However, it is not until week 20 that the fingernails and fingerprints will begin to appear.
