Fertilization:
The embryo, which is formed by the union of the egg cell with the sperm cell from the father, continues to progress towards the uterus by increasing the number of cells during the 3rd week. At this stage, the embryo progressing in the fallopian tube is very close to being implanted in the uterus. At this stage, the embryo, which is still 8 cells, is called morula. Of course, this living structure, which has just been formed, carries genes from both the mother and the father. A genetic expansion occurs when the genes from the mother and father come together, and a living being is formed whose chromosome number is the same as the mother and father, but whose body characteristics, called phenotype, can be thought of as a mixture of common genes from the mother and father.
The determination of the sex of your baby is completely related to the sex genes coming from the father. While the sex chromosomes in the mother are XX, the sex chromosomes in the father are XY. In other words, the sex chromosomes of male individuals include the Y chromosome. In this case, if your baby is going to be a girl, the X chromosomes coming from the mother and the father have come together, and if it is going to be a boy, the X chromosome from the mother and the Y chromosome from the father have come together. The genes other than the sex genes in your baby are completed by blending the chromosomes coming from both you and the father. Here, the body chromosomes come together so that there are 23 chromosomes from the mother and 23 from the father, and a living being with a chromosome number of 46+ XX or 46+XY is formed. The determination of the sex of the baby cannot be determined by any application other than in vitro fertilization. Determination of sex is a completely natural and coincidental situation. In in vitro fertilization, gender selection in babies can only be done in cases where a genetic disorder occurs in the baby being born with a different gender.
Up until the 3rd week, your baby's organs have not yet begun to form, only the living structure called the embryo has progressed and reached the uterus. During the 3rd week or at the end of the 3rd week, the embryo has settled into the uterus and is in a position attached to your uterine wall. At this time, the arrangement of the uterine wall is also completed. During this week, some women may experience temporary bleeding similar to menstrual bleeding.
