Six Weeks' Baby

DEVELOPMENT PSYCHOLOGY

UNDERSTANDING THE SIX WEEKS' BABY

Rudy Tejalaksana, M.K.

These couple days, I'm learning about 6 weeks baby. How the baby looks like now ? What has happened in the his / her physical development ? Can he / she give response to what I or my wife's action to him / her ? It's so amazing to understand that God is behind all these questions ? God is the creator. He is behind this amazing life. So, If you want to understand life, you have to turn to God and find the answers in HIM. 

At 6 weeks, the baby grows so wonderfully. The nose, mouth, and ears, are beginning to take shape and start to develop. from the Vaginal Ultrasonogram, we can see the dark oval spot on the USG's screen. It's the uterus. Inside the uterus, the baby start to grow. The big head, the tiny arms and legs are trying to reach the world and say that "I am alive". When I visit the doctor (dr. Iwan Djuanda, Sp.OG), I could see my baby's heart beating. The heart has been formed and start to work hard during life time span. The heart is beating faster than mine. The doctor said that The baby's heart beats almost twice as fast as adults' heart beat. The baby needs the fast heart beat to pull blood as much as possibe to all over the body. The blood is beginning to cource through the body to produce all inner and outer parts of the body, making muscles, bones, and most of all, the brain. How great is our GOD. Who moves the heart and instruct it to beat ? GOD does it. God makes all the move in our body to help us to recognize HIS power. At very young ages, 6 weeks, God prepares all creatures to Worsip and praise HIM with our mouth. God prepares our ears to become a listeners to HIS words, HIS love. To be a compassionate listeners to all in needs. The most important things is God prepares a heart, that tells us about HIS heart, HIS love, HIS compassion, HIS plans, and HIS purpose in our life. GOD prepares a everlasting life since the baby is in the mother's womb. God is a - perfect planner - for all human kind. GOD IS GREAT !!!!!

In love with the CREATOR,
