Document Summary

Chapter 3: prenatal growth and development, trimesters and periods. 8-15 weeks which is a significant time for brain development: despite these teratogens, most babies begin life healthy because the human body is able to protect against small amounts of toxins. A main goal is to minimize the use of medication during delivery: birthing center a more home-like place designed to accommodate the entire birth process, from labor through delivery and recovery. However, medical services are accessible if either the baby or mother needs them. Typically done between 14 20 weeks: chorionoic villus sampling the withdrawal and analysis of cells from the membranes that surround the fetus, either with a syringe or a catheter. 35 weeks: small-for-date a full-term newborn who weighs less than five pounds, eight ounces. Learning objectives: what lifespan development is, and whether stages of development are universal. The changes that occur in the cognitive, sociocultural, personality, and physical domains.
