fœtus

noun fœtuses · fœtus · fœtûs · fœti

Dated spelling of foetus. The progress of the fœtus appears to be much quicker in the early than latter months: but the proportional increase is attended with difficulty in the calculation; for this, among other reasons, that we have not an opportunity of knowing the magnitude or weight of the same fœtus in different months.
