Pregnancy - Week 3

Week 3:

This week the baby continues to grow and develop. He is about the size of the head of a pin. The fertilized egg burrows further into the uterine lining.

The HCG that the placenta is producing lets the ovaries know not to ovulate again.

The heart begins to beat and circulate blood.

You still do not feel any different than before you became pregnant.
