From Conception to Birth.
All over the world, we have been taught that the life begins when we were born and have at least the 1st second of life. But, what we must know is that life starts when we were on the womb of our mother. As soon as the spermatozoid mixed with the ovule, the magic begins, and an amazing process takes place. Moreover, the creation of new organs, systems, body parts, etc, makes that process unique. As a result, birth is a magic moment from a complex process of creation that, usually takes 9 months or less to complete the “Master Piece”.
When the mother is noticed that she has a babe on her womb, the embryonical period takes place from the 1st and 8th week. During the first 4 weeks of pregnancy, the embryo already has a heart with 2 lobes and it is beating. Also the spinal cord is visible. Moreover, the rest of the organs are being created by the 5th week to the 8th week. The embryo already has a heart, a brain that is continuously growing, and all his internal organs. But, it is not externally well-formed already.
After the embryonical period is already finished (from 1st to 8th week), the fetal period stars between the 9th to 23rd week. In the 9th week, the fetus is starting to use the internal organs to form the external organs, by the 10th week, the fetus is not similar to a babe yet, it just has a formed brain, a small chain, and two little ears. Then; fingers, feet, hands, legs, arms, a nose, and uncompleted ayes are formed by the week 16th. Next, by the 23rd week, fingernails appear, a completed face with the eyes on the front is formed, and the fetus is more like a real recent born baby.
Finally, by the 26th week, the fetus is completed; also it can suck his thumb and is moving all the time. The baby now has 18 centimeters, and the parents can feel it externally. It is moving, turning side by side, breathing and preparing himself to birth by the 32nd week.
Creation is just an amazing process, and is more valuable when we can see how that process takes

    The zygote cell is the first stage of the embryo. The zygote contains DNA from both parents which create a unique new identity that has never existed. That is the start of a baby, therefore a pregnancy is not just the woman and her body; new life has already begun since the zygote has the four criteria needed to establish biological life which include growth, metabolism, reaction to a stimuli, and reproduction.

Then at five weeks your organs will start forming slowly these would include your gut, stomach, liver, start getting your heart bulge and intestinal loop. Then up to six weeks when your eyes are visible and mouth, this is where the ears and nose will start forming while your limps grow rapidly from tiny buds. Then at eight weeks the face is more human and the tail is gone. During the remaining months all the organs have developed. At 20 weeks the foetus would have reached half of its length before birth. By 32 weeks the foetus would have reached half its weight before birth. Finally at 9 months it will be born it will be fully developed and ready to start life as a child.…

    Foetal development- human life begins with conception. If sexual intercourse takes place while the egg is in the fallopian tube, there is a possibility of conception. Just one sperm may fertilise the egg. Fertilisation means that the genetic material in the egg to start a new life. Pregnancy then begins when a sperm penetrates an egg. One to one and a half days later, the single fertilised egg cell begins to divide. After two or three days there are enough new cells to make the fertilised egg the size of a pin head. This collection of cells travels to the lining of the uterus where is becomes anchored. The developing collection of cells is now called an embryo. After eight weeks, the embryo may have grown to between 3 and 4cm, has a recognisable heartbeat and the beginnings of eyes, ears, a mouth, legs and arms. At this stage the growing organism is called a foetus. During the remaining seven months before birth, the organs continue to develop. By 20 weeks, the foetus will have reached about half the length of the baby at birth. By 32 weeks, the foetus will be about half its birth weight.…

    A human life begins with conception. Conception is the time that the child was being conceived. A fertile woman usually produces one egg cell each month, roughly two weeks after the last menstrual cycle. If sexual intercourse takes place while the egg is in the fallopian tube, there is a possibility of conception as the egg is getting ready to become a baby, but if there is no sperm then after the respiration has happened the egg will leave the body. Conception is when the sperm reaches and fertilise the egg which is what helps you discover how long you have been pregnant. It is difficult for someone to find out the exact day that the egg was fertilised as the sperm can stay in the body for days before it actually reaches the egg and fertilise it.…

    Although this collection of cells begin to organize rapidly into the brain, nervous system, circulatory system, muscles, and skeletal structure, the appearance for many weeks is grotesque, not even resembling human form. The point at which I think the life can be considered human is when brain signals can be detected and the fetus has taken on a human appearance. This occurs around 12 weeks. Until this point I do not consider abortion to be the taking of a human life. However after 3 months, abortion, is not justified unless there was a great danger to the mother's life. In fact, this is the point at which the embryo (a swelling) changes its name to be a fetus (meaning young one or…
