In the first four weeks from conception, fetal growth of the ovum begins with development of the spinal cord, nervous system, gastrointestinal system, heart and lungs. By eight weeks, in the embryonic stage, the face is forming, arms and legs move, the baby's heart begins beating and the brain and other organs form.
1 Week 5 is the start of the embryonic period.. 2  This is when all the baby's major systems and structures develop. 3  The embryo's cells multiply and start to take on specific functions. 4  This is called differentiation.estation is the period of time between conception and birth when a baby grows and develops inside the mother's womb. Because it's impossible to know exactly when conception occurs, gestational age is measured from the first day of the mother's last menstrual cycle to the current date. It is measured in weeks.
