@iSmashFizzle Nothing blew my mind like learning many prenatal vitamins (not all, but many) are for *you* and not the baby, because the baby will take the nutrients it needs—you’re ensuring you still have enough left for you

@Liz_Wheeler @AOC It does not, however, have a brain. It has not developed a cerebral cortex & therefore is still ~8 weeks from even being able to breathe or swallow. It is at least 6 weeks away from the development of the frontal or temporal lobes of the brain.

@Liz_Wheeler @AOC “It is starting to form legs!” isn’t relevant. You don’t need legs to be living or a human. You do, however, need a brain and the ability to breathe. Two weeks after a missed period, what the body has created is an embryo (not even a fetus yet) that is less developed than shrimp.

@Liz_Wheeler @AOC At 6 weeks, the electrical activity in what would develop into a brain is less developed than the nervous system of a shrimp. Six weeks is 17 weeks from having brain processing power to react to adverse stimuli.

@frankenfemme_ Fun (tangentially related) fact is that the first CCTV security system was invented by a Black woman! Marie Van Brittan Brown patented her home security system in the 60s; CCTV security systems literally started for a Black person’s safety before becoming so widespread.
