Week 16

Watch what you say.......tiny bones forming in the baby's ears mean the little one can now pick up your voice. Eyebrows, lashes and hair are starting to fill in, and tastebuds are forming. And, if you're interested, an ultrasound might be able to determine gender.

Week 15

Continuing the march to towards normal proportions, baby's legs now outmeasure the arms. And, finally, all four limbs have functional joints. Your fetus is squirming and wiggling like crazy down in the womb, though you probably still can't feel the movements.

Doctor Appointment

We had our appointment today. It was so great to hear the baby's heartbeat again. The second the wand was on my tummy we heard the heartbeat. It was somewhere in the 140s and very loud. The doctor said everything looks great.

We get to find out the sex on Nov. 17 and I can't wait. I am so excited about finding out. Anyways that is all for now!!

Week 14

Your adorable little fetus is busy with thumb sucking, toe wiggling, and (not so cute but equally amazing) making urine and breathing amniotic fluid as the liver, kidneys and spleen continue to develop. Lanugo (thin, downy hair) is growing all over the body for warmth.

We decided to do blue whether it was a boy or girl and if it is a girl we will add a few pink accents. this will be the quilt top with a fleece backing. I love it!!!

Week 13

Your fetus is forming teeth and vocal cords....savor this, their non-functional phase. Baby is approaching normal proportions, with a head only one third the size of the body. Intestines are in the process of moving from the umbilical cord to baby's tummy. (Much more convenient.)
