Amazing Video: How a Fetus Gets Its Face

On our travels through the Internet, we stumbled upon this amazing video on The Hairpin, which details a story by BBC News about the formation of the human face, in utero.

The video uses high-quality scans to show the face of a fetus coming together in the womb in the first four to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Babies may be adorable once they arrive in the world, but the time-lapse video gives us a greater appreciation for the incredible, complex process of fetal development.
