Within 24 hours after fertilization, the egg that will become your baby rapidly divides into many cells. By the eighth week of pregnancy, your baby will change names from an embryo to a fetus.

Drinking alcohol, especially in the first 3 months of pregnancy, increases the risk of miscarriage, premature birth and your baby having a low birthweight. Drinking after the first 3 months of your pregnancy could affect your baby after they're born.

5 months, your baby's birth weight may have doubled. Babies continue to gain about 1ΒΌ pounds (560 grams) this month and about 0.8 inches (2 centimeters) in length.
