4 Weeks, 1 Day

Week 4
In week 3, sperm meets egg and voila: conception!
Your little zygote sets off on a six-day trek through your fallopian tubes, dividing and redividing into individual cells as it travels to your uterus.
In week 4, now safe in your womb, the ball of cells (blastocyst) splits in two, becoming the embryo and the placenta. The amniotic sac and fluid are forming around baby, and will act as a cushion for the next eight months.
