Prenatal Development and Childbirth
• Prenatal Growth and Development
• Prenatal Environmental Influences
• Childbirth
• The Evolving Family

Prenatal Growth and Development• Prenatal development is divided into three
periods:– Germinal: 0 to 2 weeks
– Embryonic: 2 to 8 weeks
– Fetal: 9 to 38 weeks
![Page 4: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

Prenatal Growth and Development
• Ovulation occurs about 2 weeks after start of menstrual period– The ovum (egg) travels through fallopian
tubes, where fertilization may take place
– If fertilization takes place, a zygote results
![Page 5: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Two Ways to Describe the Prenatal Period
![Page 6: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Germinal Period
• Time of extremely active cell vision
• Toward end of first week after conception, cells have developed into a blastula, ball of cells around a fluid-filled center
• Cells begin to differentiate to form supportive structures
• Twins may develop during the first few divisions of the zygote
– Monozygotic (identical) twins develop when two identical cells separate and develop into two embryos
– Dizygotic (fraternal) twins develop when two eggs (ova) are released simultaneously and each unites with a different sperm

Ovulation and Fertilization
![Page 8: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.
Embryonic Period
• Beings when implantation is complete
• Some cells form the embryonic disc, from which the child will develop
• Other cells will form supportive structures differentiated into the: – placenta
– umbilical cord
– amniotic sac
![Page 9: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

The Embryo
• Develops into three distinct layers:
– Ectoderm: outer layer
• Will become skin, sense organs, brain, nervous system
– Mesoderm: middle layer
• Will become muscles, blood, excretory system
– Endoderm: inner layer
• Will become digestive system, lungs, thyroid, thymus, and other organs
![Page 10: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.
The Embryo (continued)
• During the second month, most major body structures develop, except the brain
• Spontaneous abortions (miscarriages) occur primarily during first trimester, usually by 12 or 13 weeks
– Often caused by genetic defects or unsuccessful implantation
– Maternal age, health, nutrition, and exposure to toxic substances, are also risk factors
![Page 11: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.
The Fetal Period
• Lasts from the beginning of third month until birth
• Organs and systems mature and develop, especially the brain and nervous system
• At age 24 weeks, the healthy fetus reaches the age of viability, meaning it has a 50% chance of surviving outside the womb if given high-quality intensive care
• Half of surviving fetuses born at 24 weeks have serious anomalies
![Page 12: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Developmental Trends
• Three general trends characterize early developmental processes:– Cephalocaudal trend
• Development advances from the head to the feet
– Proximodistal trend• Development proceeds from the middle of the
body outward
– Gross-to-specific trend• Responses become more specific as development
advances
![Page 17: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Prenatal Environmental Influences
• Both genetic defects and environmental influences during the prenatal period or childbirth can result in congenital anomalies
• Maternal age is linked to increased incidence of congenital anomalies
– One in 25 mothers over the age of 45 will have a child with Down syndrome
– Age may be related to age of the ova, which may become damaged over time
– Hormone levels also shift as women age
![Page 19: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Maternal Health and Nutrition
• Maternal malnutrition in pregnancy is linked to:– higher rates of spontaneous abortion
– premature birth
– stillbirth
– later difficulties in development
• Early quality prenatal care is associated with having healthy babies
![Page 20: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Critical Periods in Prenatal Development
• A critical period is one during which the developing child is at the greatest risk for harm as a result of teratogens
• Sometimes exposure to a specific teratogen causes specific harm
• Or, exposure to certain teratogens may increase overall risk of damage
![Page 21: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Teratogens and Their Effects
• Viruses (HIV, rubella, the flu) may cross the placental barrier and affect the baby
• Using HAART therapy and Caesarian delivery, mother-to infant HIV transmission reduced to near zero
• Certain prescription drugs can cause damage
![Page 23: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Teratogens and Their Effects
• Prenatal alcohol exposure: – May cause fetal alcohol affects or fetal alcohol
syndrome
– Also increases risk for learning disabilities, attention problems, and hyperactivity
– No amount of alcohol consumption during pregnancy is safe
![Page 24: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Teratogens and Their Effects
• Marijuana exposure is linked to birth defects, structural defects, and cognitive deficiencies
• Cigarette smoking may lead to stillbirth, prematurity, spontaneous abortion, low birth weight and cognitive deficits
• Amphetamine drugs (e.g., cocaine) may damage the nervous system
![Page 26: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Childbirth• Three stages:
– initial labor
– labor and delivery
– afterbirth
• Childbirth practices vary widely among cultures and generations
• Many women prefer natural childbirth today, though with medical assistance
• Birthing centers are becoming more common• Cesarean section used in 26% of U.S. births
![Page 27: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Technological Innovations
• Allow physicians to detect problems early in pregnancy:
– Chorionic villus sampling (CVS)
– Ultrasound
– Amniocentesis
– Fetal monitors

Complications in Childbirth
• Breech presentation may require c-section
• Baby’s general health is evaluated on the 10-point Apgar Scale
• Prematurity is associated with:
– Low birth weight
– Difficulty adjusting after birth
– Behavioral problems in childhood

The Evolving Family• Birth is a psychological and social milestone for
the family
• The transition to parenting can be challenging– Pregnancy affects mothers emotionally and
psychologically, as well as physically
– Fathers may feel a greater sense of responsibility and concern about the future

The Newborn• The child experiences birth trauma
• Average full-term newborn weighs between 5 pounds, 8 ounces and 9 pounds, 8 ounces
• Typically between 19 and 22 inches long
• May have enlarged genitalia
• Upon birth, babies make major adjustments to their respiration, circulation, digestion, and temperature regulation
![Page 36: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

The Newborn
• Babies are born with two types of reflexes
– Survival
• Breathing, sucking, rooting, sneezing, gagging
– Primitive
• May have had survival value in evolutionary past, these reflexes disappear during first months of life
![Page 37: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

The Newborn
• Social and emotional processes of the infant will lead to development of attachment
• Attachment is reciprocal:
– Extends from infant to caregiver and visa versa
– For example, breast-feeding is good for mother and baby
• Infant-caregiver interactions shortly after birth establish the foundation of the attachment relationships that will continue through life
![Page 39: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Summary
• Prenatal development is divided into three 3-month trimesters—germinal, embryonic, and fetal
• Three general trends characterize early development—cephalocaudal, proximodistal, and gross-to-specific
• Genetic defects and environmental influences (e.g., maternal age, malnutrition, and specific teratogens) can cause birth defects
![Page 40: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Summary
• Childbirth is divided into three stages—initial labor, labor and delivery, and afterbirth
• Childbirth customs vary across cultures
• Cesarean sections are being increasingly performed, even when not medically necessary
• Premature is associated with low birth weight and early adjustment difficulties
• A baby’s general health can be evaluated on a scale called the Apgar Scoring System
![Page 41: Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Prenatal Development and Childbirth Chapter 3 3.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649da15503460f94a8e276/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Summary
• Birth marks a dramatic transition for newborns, who must make major adjustments to their respiration, circulation, digestion, and temperature regulations
• Babies are born with survival reflexes• Shortly after birth, babies and caregivers
engage in behaviors that will lead to attachment
• Attachment forms the foundation for later social and personality development
