24
Q

Oogenesis

A

Egg production

25
Q

amniotic fluid

A

derived from fluid by diffusion from maternal blood at first then at 11 weeks the baby urinates to increase amniotic fluid

26
Q

yolk sac

A

The yolk sac is an extra-embryonic membrane that provides food for the embryo.

27
Q

umbilical cord

A

a tube containing the blood vessels connecting the fetus and placenta

28
Q

oligohydramnios

A

too little amniotic fluid (<300mL)

29
Q

Polyhydraminos

A

excessive amniotic fluid >1500mL

30
Q

Functions of amniotic fluid

A

maintain baby body temperature, provided oral fluids, place wastes, fluid and electrolyte homeostasis, free movement and cushion fetus from trauma, and acts as a barrier to infection, allows to help lung maturity

31
Q

how many vessels are in the umbilical cord

A

3 VESSELS: 2 ARTERIES; 1 VEIN

32
Q

the umbilical cord is surrounded by

A

Þ Wharton’s jelly (protects the 2 arteries and one vein)
Þ Twists spirally

33
Q

true knot

A

baby movement can form a knot and baby could die

34
Q

uchal cord

A

Umbilical cord around the fetal neck.

35
Q

when is the placenta made

A

on implementation (6-10 days after conception)

36
Q

functions of the placenta

A

hormone and enzyme production, nutrient and gas exchange, remove waste from fetus

37
Q

Three shunts in fetal circulation

A

ductus venosus, foramen ovale, ductus arteriosus

38
Q

ductus arteriosus

A

moves blood from pulmonary artery to aorta
o Closes within 24 hours of birth

39
Q

ductus venosus

A

high O2 blood from liver to inferior vena cava to right atrium
o Closes 2-3 months and has no function

40
Q

foramen ovale

A

bypasses the lungs and moves blood from right atrium to left atrium
o Closes immediately after birth

41
Q

week 4 development

A
  • Heart: 2 chambers, valves, and speta forming
  • Circulation beginning (heart beating 65 BPM)
    o At the end of week 3 they heart begins to beat, starts off very slowly
42
Q

Week 5 development

A

AT RISK FOR ANOMALIES IS HIGHEST TO THIS POINT

43
Q

week 8 development

A
  • First indication of bone ossification
    o MOM SHOULD TAKE EXTRA CALCIUM, otherwise mom may get cavity or tingling of hands and feet
44
Q

when is the heart beat audible with a doppler

A

12 weeks development

45
Q

when does meconium, begin to collect in the intestines

A

16 week development

46
Q

when do the sebaceous glands begin to secret vernix

A

20 week development

47
Q

When does mom start to feel fetal movement

A

20 weeks (multigravid can feel it at 16 weeks)

48
Q

When is the placenta fully formed?

A

20 weeks

49
Q

viability

A

viable at 24 weeks (can be as early at 22 with technology)

50
Q

when does the baby begin to hear and respond to sound inutero

A

24 weeks

51
Q

When does lecithin form in alveolar surface

A

28 weeks

52
Q

RATIO FOR LUNG MATURITY IN BABY

A

2:2.5 (L/S RATIO)

53
Q

Dizygotic

A

Þ : two mature ova (eggs) are released and two DIFFERENT sperm with fertilize the eggs (they look nothing alike because its two eggs with two separate sperms)

54
Q

Dizygotic placenta

A

o They will have two separate placentae, but they can be joined in the middle

55
Q

Monozygotic

A

Þ one egg (ovum) release and one sperm that fertilized one egg but then it DIVIDES INTO TWO (this is identical twins of the same sex)

56
Q

Monozygotic placenta

A

o One big placenta with two umbilical cords

57
Q

Conjoined

A

monozygotic, but something went wrong during division and they may share one body.

58
Q

Triplets

A

could be two eggs and one divides or one egg dividing three times.
