In other news, I am 18 weeks today. According to my updates from babycenter.com here's the approximate state of baby's development by today:
"Head to rump, your baby is about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and weighs almost 7 ounces. Baby's busy flexing its arms and legs — movements that you'll start noticing more and more in the weeks ahead. Baby's blood vessels are visible through its thin skin, and its ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from its head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around its nerves, a process that will continue for a year after it's born. If you're having a girl, her uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. If you're having a boy, his genitals are noticeable now, but he may hide them from you during an ultrasound."
So with that in mind, here are some pics of the belly today to mark the occasion:
So there you have it :) 2 weeks from tomorrow we get to see your bits, littlest one! :)
Your hair looks great! Can't wait to hear what you're having!
ReplyDeleteYour little bump looks good too. It looks bigger and more defined than mine. :)
