6th week embryo development: Your baby, now called an embryo, is clearly visible on ultrasound. He is about 1/8 of an inch long, about the size of a grain of rice. When you're 6 weeks pregnant, his nervous system and all major body organs — heart, kidneys, liver, and lungs — begin to form. Facial features — jaw, cheeks, chin, nose, and eyes — begin to develop around the 6th week of pregnancy. Your baby's heartbeat is beating about 80 times per minute and gets faster each day.
