It means that you don't really respond to outside stimulus with very much emotion or with the same behaviorisms that most other people would in the same situation. Let me try to give you an example. Say someone tells you that the sky is blue. Normal affect would be baseline, meaning your usual facial expression.
The fetusâ heart begins to beat at 5 weeks gestation, at around 80-85 beats per minute. This rate increases about 3 beats per minute per day during the first month. When the fetus heart is first developed it resembles that of a tube. As the fetus begins to grow, so does the heart. Due to lack of room, that tube begins to bend and twist, beginning to take on the shape of a normal human heart.
As a general rule, 5.5 to 6.5 weeks is the earliest time that your doctor will be able to detect a fetal heart beat by trans-vaginal ultrasound. In other words, about six weeks is the earliest stage where you can hear your tiny babyâs heartbeat with an ultrasound. At that early phase, your babyâs heart rate should be about 100 beats per minute.
