Below are beautiful photos of living alive babies in the womb, from the website www.ehd.org – with permission.

On this page below scroll to the bottom to start with images of what happens in the first week of our life.

Again: age from conception – not amenorrhea. If you want amenorrhea, add 2 weeks.
