5weeks completed and sixth week started.
Blood is now circulating around your baby as the heart begins to flutter. The kidneys and liver are growing fast, and the neural tube closes, connecting the brain to the spinal cord.
Your baby’s facial features are appearing. Folds on either side of the head will become ears. There are openings for the mouth and nostrils and the retinas of your baby’s eyes are also developing, as are the beginnings of fingers and toes.
