In the seventh week after conception, networks of neurons produce brain waves that have been recorded as early as 6 ½ weeks after conception. The embryo spontaneously moves his arms, hands, and legs, and may even hiccup. The embryo’s heart now has all four chambers.

With repeated exposures, the fetus can learn flavors, nursery rhymes, songs, and even words that she will recognize after birth!
