Detailed explanation-1: -Week 5 is the start of the “embryonic period.” This is when all the baby’s major systems and structures develop. The embryo’s cells multiply and start to take on specific functions. This is called differentiation. Blood cells, kidney cells, and nerve cells all develop.

Detailed explanation-2: -After conception, your baby begins a period of dramatic change known as the embryonic stage. This stage runs from the 5th through the 10th week of pregnancy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Starting in the second week after fertilization, the embryo starts to develop distinct cell layers, form the nervous system, make blood cells, and form many organs. By the end of the embryonic stage, most organs have started to form, although they will continue to develop and grow in the next stage (that of the fetus).

Detailed explanation-4: -Early Stages The germinal stage of pregnancy starts at the time of conception, when the sperm and the egg combine to form a zygote. During the germinal stage, the zygote begins to divide in order to implant into the uterine wall. Once implantation is complete, the embryonic stage begins.
