  2. Anthropometric measurement of the developing fetus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropometric_measurement...

    In Africa and South Asia, 27%-50% of women in the reproductive age are underweight resulting in 30 million low birth weight babies. [ 2 ] For decades, the topic of question pertaining to crown-rump length (CR), crown-heel length (CH), head circumference (HC) with respect to the body weight of human fetus at different time periods of gestation ...

  3. Gestational age - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestational_age

    For example, if there is a gestational age based on the beginning of the last menstrual period of 9.0 weeks, and a first-trimester obstetric ultrasonography gives an estimated gestational age of 10.0 weeks (with a 2 SD variability of ±8% of the estimate, thereby giving a variability of ±0.8 weeks), the difference of 1.0 weeks between the ...

  4. Crown-rump length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown-rump_length

    An ultrasound showing an embryo measured to have a crown-rump length of 1.67 cm and estimated to have a gestational age of 8 weeks and 1 day. Crown-rump length (CRL) is the measurement of the length of human embryos and fetuses from the top of the head (crown) to the bottom of the buttocks (rump). It is typically determined from ultrasound ...

  5. Obstetric ultrasonography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstetric_ultrasonography

    After 13 weeks of gestation, the fetal age may be estimated using the biparietal diameter (the transverse diameter of the head, across the two parietal bones), the head circumference, the length of the femur, the crown-heel length (head to heel), and other fetal parameters.

  6. Timeline of human prenatal development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_human_prenatal...

    Gestational age: 35 and 0 days until 39 weeks and 6 days old. Embryonic age: Weeks nr 34–38. 33–37 weeks old. The fetus is considered full-term at the end of the 39th week of gestational age. It may be 48 to 53 cm (19 to 21 in) in length. The lanugo is gone except on the upper arms and shoulders. Fingernails extend beyond fingertips.

  8. Fetus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fetus

    A human fetus, attached to placenta, at three months gestational age. In humans, the fetal stage starts nine weeks after fertilization. [7] At this time the fetus is typically about 30 millimetres (1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) in length from crown to rump, and weighs about 8 grams. [7] The head makes up nearly half of the size of the fetus. [8]

  9. Fundal height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundal_height

    Fundal height, when expressed in centimeters, roughly corresponds to gestational age in weeks between 16 and 36 weeks for a vertex fetus. When a tape measure is unavailable, finger widths are used to estimate centimeter (week) distances from a corresponding anatomical landmark.
