What are the stages of organ development in children?
Organ development in children occurs in several stages, starting from the embryonic phase and continuing into the postnatal period. The embryonic phase, which spans from conception to the eighth week of gestation, is when the formation of major organ systems begins. The fetal stage follows, extending from the ninth week until birth, during which organs continue to mature and grow. After birth, organ development continues as the child grows, with different organs maturing at different rates.
