The fetus, while not able to make sense of and process what they are hearing, has the ability to hear, feel pressure and different temperatures. The third trimester has many perinatal brain development milestones. In the 30th week, the fetus can control its own body heat. In the 31st week, the fetus is able to process more stimuli and information.
Gestational age: 7 weeks and 0 days until 7 weeks and 6 days old. 50–56 days from last menstruation. Embryonic age: Week nr 6. 5 weeks old. 36–42 days from fertilization. The embryo measures 13 mm (1 ⁄ 2 in) in length. Lungs begin to form. The brain continues to develop. Arms and legs have lengthened with foot and hand areas distinguishable.
Brain areas that undergo significant post-natal development, such as those involved in memory and emotion are more vulnerable to effects of early life stress. [ 58 ] [ 64 ] For example, the hippocampus continues to develop after birth and is a structure that is affected by childhood maltreatment. [ 64 ]
Cortical white matter increases from childhood (~9 years) to adolescence (~14 years), most notably in the frontal and parietal cortices. [8] Cortical grey matter development peaks at ~12 years of age in the frontal and parietal cortices, and 14–16 years in the temporal lobes (with the superior temporal cortex being last to mature), peaking at about roughly the same age in both sexes ...
There are two points in rodent brain development during which treatment with choline, a neurotransmitter, produces lifelong enhancement of spatial memory. Choline, a neurotransmitter important for spatial memory. The first point is at 12–17 days into embryo development, and the second is between 16 and 30 days after the rat has been born.

The first stage of development runs from birth to 18 months and thus covers the infancy period. The conflict which Erikson identified during this time was trust vs mistrust. During this vulnerable point in the child's life, they are faced with uncertainties in the world and are therefore reliant on their caregiver.
