I take the opportunity to add on the subject of embryology the just issued work by Sandra Smets, 
La question de la non-dualité dans la Jaiminīyasaṃhitā du Brahmāṇḍapurāṇa. Le Janakapraśna édité, traduit et commenté, Louvain-la-Neuve, Publications de l'Institut orientaliste de Louvain 63, 2013, xxvi & 422 pp., 80€
http://www.peeters-leuven.be/boekoverz.asp?nr=9120
which includes the text of Garbha-Up within a comparison of several medical and puranic sources on the development of the embryo.
Best,
Christophe Vielle

Dear Victoria and List,
For Buddhist sources on embryology, you might find helpful new research by Nobuyoshi Yamabe and Robert Kritzer in the 2013 edited volume "The Foundation for Yoga Practitioners", Harvard Oriental Series vol. 75. The articles can lead you to further bibliographical references in terms of Indian Buddhism and embryology.

The book ought to be available at the library of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences or at some other Moscow Indologist library connected with Dr. Alexander A. Stolyarov.

Best, Tim
