The fetal stage of development is characterized by the rapid growth of the baby and the maturation of the organs. This stage begins around the end of the second month of pregnancy and continues until birth. The doctor's comment about the organs being highly developed and focusing on weight gain indicates that Becca's baby is in the fetal stage.
