Fetal size at week 8 of pregnancy

Week 8 of pregnancy is the last week of the second month and the embryo grows at great speed. The head stands out, being considerably larger than the rest of the body. The measurements of the fetus in the eighth week of pregnancy are similar to a fig. The fetus is about 13-18 mm long and weighs about 3 grams.

In any case, in the 8th week of pregnancy the first ultrasound is performed and it will be then when the specialist will determine the gestational time and the fetal measurements more accurately.
