We are asynchronous this week. You will be learning about fetal development this week. To complete this week's module, you will need to do the following:

1. READ: Chapter 2 which focuses on fetal development. This chapter is a little dense but gives a great overview of fetal development. You don't need to memorize this information but you do need to read it so that you can apply the knowledge. Read pages 39-71.

2. READ: This short article on how COVID-19 impacts pregnant people.

3: REVIEW: This chart of fetal development.

4. APPLY: What you have learned about fetal development to this week's case study.
