How big is the gestational sac during the second month of pregnancy

The gestational sac is generally an important indicator for examining the progress of a woman's pregnancy. Two months after a woman becomes pregnant, the size of the gestational sac should be about three to four centimeters in diameter. Of course, this is for women with normal menstruation. If a woman has menstrual problems, the gestational sac will generally develop more slowly after pregnancy. For example, the embryo may just grow two months into the pregnancy, but the gestational sac has not yet developed.

Pregnancy is a complex process. After the egg is fertilized, it enters the uterine cavity, and the embryo and its appendages grow and develop rapidly until they mature. There will be different changes in each week of pregnancy.

4 weeks: The fetus is only 0.2 cm. The amniotic cavity is formed just after the fertilized egg has implanted and its volume is very small. Ultrasound cannot show clear signs of pregnancy.

5 weeks: The fetus grows to 0.4 cm and enters the embryonic period. The amniotic cavity expands and primitive cardiovascular system appears, which may beat. B-ultrasound can show a small gestational sac, which occupies less than 1/4 of the uterine cavity, or a fetal bud can be seen.

6 weeks: The fetus grows to 0.85 cm. The head, brain alveoli, facial organs, respiratory, digestive, and nervous organs are differentiated. The fetal sac is clearly visible on B-ultrasound, and the fetal bud and fetal heartbeat are seen.

7 weeks: The fetus grows to 1.33 cm. The embryo has the rudiments of a human being. The body segments are fully differentiated, the limbs are separated, and various systems are further developed. B-ultrasound clearly shows the embryo and fetal heartbeat, and the gestational sac occupies about 1/3 of the uterine cavity.

8 weeks: The fetus grows to 1.66 cm. The fetal shape is determined, and the head, body and limbs can be distinguished. The head is larger than the trunk. B-ultrasound shows that the gestational sac occupies about 1/2 of the uterine cavity, the fetal shape and fetal movement are clearly visible, and the yolk sac can be seen.

9 weeks: The fetus grows to 2.15 cm. The head is larger than the body, the various parts are clearer, the skull begins to calcify, and the placenta begins to develop. B-ultrasound shows that the gestational sac almost fills the uterine cavity, the fetal outline is clearer, and the placenta begins to appear.

10 weeks: The fetus grows to 2.83 cm, all fetal organs have been formed, and the rudiments of the placenta are formed. B-ultrasound shows that the gestational sac begins to disappear, a crescent-shaped placenta is visible, and the fetus is active in the amniotic fluid.

11 weeks: The fetus grows to 3.62 cm, the fetal organs develop further, and the placenta develops. B-ultrasound showed that the gestational sac had completely disappeared and the placenta was clearly visible.
