6 weeks

Ultrasound is amazing.  Technology has come so far that we can actually see the our baby and hear her heartbeat as early as 5-6 weeks.

During your 6th week of pregnancy (just 4 weeks after conception), your baby grows at a phenomenal rate and his systems develop significantly. Here's what's happening at 6 weeks pregnant:

  • Your baby is clearly visible on ultrasound
  • When you're 6 weeks pregnant, his nervous system and all major body organs — heart, kidneys, liver, and lungs — are the first to form.
  • Facial features — jaw, cheeks, chin, ear canals, nose, and eyes — begin to develop around the 6th week of pregnancy.
  • You baby's heart beats about 80 times per minute and gets faster each day.
