Introduction
Most
developmental theories
discussed dwelt on the
developmental process after birth
Prenatal
development is discussed to
make the description of the human
development complete, It is valuable
to understand the beginnings of a
child and the adolescent.
Fertilization
to birth
Prenatal
development
lasts approximately 266
days

Conception
Conception
Germinal Period
(first two weeks)
This
stage includes:
-creation of the zygote
-continued cell division
-attachment of zygote to the
uterine wall
consists of an inner
mass of cells that will eventually
develop into the embryo.
Trophoblast outer layer of cells
that later provides nutrition and
support for the embryo.
Implantation the attachment of
the zygote to the uterine wall.

is a sedative, also an
anti-nausea drug--but deforms
children.
Diethylstilbestrol (DES) was used
to prevent miscarriages but causes
damage to reproductive systems of
offspring.
Other potentially harmful prescribed
drugs are accutane,
streptomycin, and tetra-cycline.

unlike morphine, but
more addictive
Severe withdrawal

Newborn babies of
heroin addicts vomit,
tremble, cry, and have
fever, disturbed sleep,
and abnormal cries

Smoking is associated
with low birth weight,
spontaneous abortion,

Conclusion
Prenatalor
antenataldevelopmentis
the process in which a human embryo
orfetus(or foetus) gestates during
pregnancy, from fertilization until birth.
It suggests that human life begins at
conception.
Prenatal development then continues to
the Germinal, Embryonic and Fetal stages
and moves on to birth.
