Fertilization: Where occurs in the distal third of the fallopian tube (ampulla) near the ovary.
- when one sperm enters the ovum and the two nuclei containing the parents'
Fertilization: When
chromosomes merge
- may cause morning sickness
hCG
- monitor in the blood (determines pregnancy
- causes relaxation of smooth muscle, resulting in stasis of urine and constipation
- when a woman has many losses and get pregnant they will get shots of this.
Progesterone
- maintains the uterine lining, prevents contractions and helps prepare breasts
for lactation

- causes skin changes
Estrogen

plugged ears, deep voice)
Why has the Incidence of Multiple - rise in maternal age
Gestation increased in the United States? - infertility treatments
- conceived by the union of a single ovum and sperm
Monozygotic
- have identical genetic complements and are the same gender
- cleft lip
Monozygotic: Complications
- preterm/low birth weights
- arise from two ova that are fertilized by different sperm
- may be hereditary
Dizygotic
- can be caused by infertility treatment
- older women typically have these
- occurs in the upper uterus, slightly more often on the posterior wall than
the anterior wall
Placental Implantation
- the upper uterus is the best area for implantation and placental development
- limits blood loss, thicker and richly supplied with blood
- An abnormally small quantity of amniotic fluid
Oligohydramnios
- less than 50% of the amount expected for gestation, or under 400 mL at term
- An abnormally large quantity of amniotic fluid
- the quantity may exceed 2000 mL
Polyhydramnios
- caused by imbalanced water exchange, poorly controlled DM and
chromosomal abnormalities
