CONCEPTION AND BIOPHYSICAL CHANGES
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
THE PROCESS OF FERTILIZATION
Sperm and ovum unite to form a zygote
Ova are fertile for 12 to 24 hours
Sperm are fertile for 72 hours
Takes place in the ampulla of fallopian tube

CONCEPTION
Necessary functional componentsa. uterusb. fallopian tubesc. ovaries (eggs)d. hormonese. sperm
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
PREPARATION FOR FERTILIZATION
Estrogen levels increase peristalsis in fallopian tubes
Fertilization usually takes place in ampulla
Single ejaculation – 200 to 500 million spermatozoa
Prostaglandins in semen help transport sperm

FERTILIZATION & IMPLANTATIONa. process over time Ovum Fertilized Ovum Zygote (Pronuclei Stage) 1st Mitotic Division 2-Cell Zygote (1 1/2 days later) 16-Cell Morula (3 days) 58-Cell Blastocyst (4 days) 107-Cell Unilaminar Blastocyst (4 1/2 days) Several Days Pass Until Bilaminar Blastocyst Implants (6 days)

PREEMBRYONIC STAGE
First 14 days of human development
Cleavage
Blastomeres form morula
BlastocystDevelops into embryonic disc and amnion
Trophoblast Develops into chorion
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
IMPLANTATION
Occurs 7 to 10 days after fertilization
Blastocyst burrows into endometrium
Endometrium is now called decidua
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
CELLULAR DIFFERENTIATION (CONT’D)Embryonic membranes begin to formChorion(outerm membrane contribues to placental development)
Amnion (inner most membranous sac)
Amniotic fluidFunctions –protects against physical force, maintains temperature, allows fetal movement
Characteristics-clear, slightly yellow, 700-1000cc by 3rd trimester,
Abnormal variations-
Yolk sac-provides early nourshment
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
CELLULAR DIFFERENTIATION (CONT’D)
Umbilical cordBody stalk fuses with embryonic portion of placenta
Provides circulatory pathway from chorionic villi to embryoOne vein, two arteriesWharton’s jelly
Delivers oxygenated blood to fetusTwo arteries
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
PLACENTA
Metabolic and nutrient exchangeMaternal portionDecidua basalis and circulationFetal portionCovered by amnion (chorionic villi)Fetal surface covered by amnion
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
PLACENTAL DEVELOPMENTChorionic villi form spaces in
decidua basalisSpaces fill with maternal bloodChorionic villi (provide blood
supply to the embryo)Syncytium: outer layerCytotrophoblast: inner layerAnchoring villi form septa

FIGURE 11-13 LONGITUDINAL SECTION OF PLACENTAL VILLUS. SPACES FORMED IN THE MATERNAL DECIDUA ARE FILLED WITH MATERNAL BLOOD; CHORIONIC VILLI PROLIFERATE INTO THESE MATERNAL BLOOD-FILLED SPACES AND DIFFERENTIATE INTO A SYNCYTIUM LAYER AND A CYTOTROPHOBLAST LAYER.

PLACENTAL CIRCULATION
After implantation cells differentiate
Trophoblast invades endometriumOpens uterine capillariesCompletion of maternal-placental-
fetal circulationAbout 17 days after conception
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
FIGURE 11-14 VASCULAR ARRANGEMENT OF THE PLACENTA. ARROWS INDICATE THE DIRECTION OF BLOOD FLOW. MATERNAL BLOOD FLOWS THROUGH THE UTERINE ARTERIES TO THE INTERVILLOUS SPACES OF THE PLACENTA AND RETURNS THROUGH THE UTERINE VEINS TO MATERNAL CIRCULATION. FETAL BLOOD FLOWS THROUGH THE UMBILICAL ARTERIES INTO THE VILLOUS CAPILLARIES OF THE PLACENTA AND RETURNS THROUGH THE UMBILICAL VEIN TO THE FETAL CIRCULATION.

PLACENTAL FACTS
• Size of 8-inch dinner plate• Consists of 15-20 cotyledons,
chorionic villi branch out from it• Structure is complete at the end of
12th week gestation• Grows till 20th week gestation,
covers ½ of uterine surface
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
PLACENTAL FUNCTIONS
Transfers nutrients Diffuses oxygen and carbon dioxide functioning as fetal
lungs Production of 4hormones
hCG Progesterone Estrogens hCS/hPL
Facilitates transfer of metabolic wastes from the fetus to the maternal ciruclation
Transfers heat from mother to fetus.
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
DEVELOPMENT OF THE FETAL CIRCULATORY SYSTEMMaintains blood flow to placenta
Provides fetus with oxygen and nutrients
Removes carbon dioxide and waste products
Blood flows through umbilical vein into abdominal wall of fetus
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
FIGURE 11-15 FETAL CIRCULATION. BLOOD LEAVES THE PLACENTA AND ENTERS THE FETUS THROUGH THE UMBILICAL VEIN. AFTER CIRCULATING THROUGH THE FETUS, THE BLOOD RETURNS TO THE PLACENTA THROUGH THE UMBILICAL ARTERIES. THE DUCTUS VENOSUS, THE FORAMEN OVALE, AND THE DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS ALLOW THE BLOOD TO BYPASS THE FETAL LIVER AND LUNGS.

FACTORS INFLUENCING DEVELOPMENT
Quality of sperm or ovum
Genetic code
Adequacy of intrauterine environment
Teratogens (any agent that interfere with a developing embryo)
Organs formed primarily during embryonic development

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF PREGNANCY—THIS IS IMPORTANT TO KNOWPresumptive signs of pregnancy
(subjective)• menstrual suppression (amenorrhea, menstruation may occur after conception)
• nausea, vomiting, and "morning sickness" (due to increased HCG levels)
• frequency of micturition (uterus stretches base of bladder)
• tenderness and fullness of the breasts, breast pigmentation, and discharge (due to increased progesterone, estrogen)
• "quickening" (usually 18-20 wks. may be 16 wks. in multigravida)
• fatigue
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
PROBABLE SIGNS (OBJECTIVE)
• Dark blue discoloration of the vaginal mucous membrane known as CHADWICK'S SIgn
• pigmentation of the skin and abdominal striae (may also occur in breasts, buttocks, and thighs)
• changes in the size, shape, and consistency of the uterus - HEGAR'S SIGN (lower part of the body of uterus much softer than cervix)
• fetal outline, distinguished by abdominal palpation and detection of a fetal part vaginally by BALLOTTEMENT (sudden tap on presenting part makes it rise in amniotic fluid)
• changes in the cervix (GOODELL'S SIGN - cervix softens due to increased vascularity edema)
• BRAXTON HICKS contractions (painless, cause of false labor)• positive pregnancy test (increased Hcg levels, blood/serum 8-9
days after ovulation and fertilization and urine test within 2 wks of gestation)
Olds’ Maternal-Newborn Nursing & Women’s Health Across the Lifespan, Ninth EditionMichele Davidson • Marcia London • Patricia Ladewig
POSITIVE SIGNS (DIAGNOSTIC)
• fetal heart sounds (audible with Doppler 8-10 weeks gestation, or ultrasound)
• fetal movements felt by examiner• x-ray- outline of fetal skeleton• ultrasonic demonstration of the
presence of a conceptus (6-8 wks. yields most information)
• fetal movements visible
