Developing Ears

The first picture shows the ear at eight weeks. At four months we see the ear being formed and at five months we see the ear fully formed.

Developing Hands

This is the arm bud. It begins to grow around the third or fourth week.

Two weeks later we see the finger buds developing.

By the eleventh week we can see tiny fingers on each hand.



In week seventeen the finger nails may be seen.


Developing Feet

This is a picture of the tail and leg buds.

Here we see the developed feet and toes.



Now that the feet and toes are partially developed, it is the leg's turn to grow. Through the skin we can see the developing bones.
