What is fertilisation? Fertilisation is the moment when a sperm and egg join together, and the genes from the mother and father combine to form a new life. For the sperm, it is the end of a long and difficult journey - the winner of a race that started out with 500 million competitors. The prize is the egg, which is released from the ovary and then travels along the fallopian tube to meet the sperm . . . . . . #pregnancyadvice #pregnant #pregnancy #pregnancylife #pregnancybump #pregnantbelly #pr
