Q

Where is the most common location for implantation

A

upper/posterior wall

22
Q

What is trophectoderm

A

The blastocyst separates into the embryo and the placenta

23
Q

What does the trophoblast do

A

cause destruction and rebuilding of the spiral arteries so that blood flow cn be maintained from mom to fetus during development

24
Q

Which cells are responsible for secreting HCG

A

Trophoblastic

25
Q

What do stroll cells secrete for the developing fetus

A

glycogen
proteins
lipids

26
Q

When does the placenta develop for function

A

Day 16

27
Q

What does the fetus want for energy

A

glucose

28
Q

What is the inner layer of the trophoblast

A

amnion

29
Q

What is the chorion

A

the outer layer of trophoblast

30
Q

When is the hypothalamus/pituitary developed

A

12th week

31
Q

When does the fetal heart begin to contract

A

day 21

32
Q

How much more O2 does fetal hemoglobin have

A

20-50% more

33
Q

Why is there an increase in estrogen at the end of pregnancy

A

to get ready for labor

34
Q

Why is progesterone elevated during pregnancy

A

to help prevent contractions

Breast development

35
Q

What is the benefit of HCG lab work

A

to check trending to see if pregnancy is still occurring or not

36
Q

How much is a normal amount of amniotic fluid

A

500-1000mL

37
Q

What fluid makes up majority of amniotic fluid

A

fetal renal function

38
Q

How fast does fluid within the amniotic sac get exchanged

A

every 3 hours

39
Q

How much does estrogen increase with pregnancy

A

30x above

40
Q

What does estrogen help with during fetal development

A

Increase breast tissue
increase tissue laxity
appropriate uterine enlargement
increase external genitalia

41
Q

What secretes estrogen during pregnancy

A

syncytial trophoblastic cells of placenta

42
Q

What secretes progesterone during pregnancy

A

corpus luteum and then the placenta later in pregnancy

43
Q

What happens to moms pituitary during pregnancy

A

Increases 50% in size
increase ACTH, TRH, Prolactin

44
Q

Why are glucocorticoids increased during pregnancy

A

to increase amino acid levels to be used by fetal tissue

45
Q

Why do women become edematous during pregnancy

A

increased aldosterone secretion = Na+ reabsorption = fluid retention

46
Q

Why do the thyroid and parathyroid increase in size during pregnancy

A

Hcg and placenta causes an increase in thyroid hormone demand

47
Q

How much does CO increase

A

30-60% in first trimester

48
Q

What are the side effects of increased hCG and progesterone

A

N/V associated with relaxed stomach muscles, decreased GI motility

49
Q

When can fetal movements typically been felt

A

20weeks

50
