August 17, 2012 - 12 Weeks!!!

Today we are 12 weeks!!!

New this week: The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it. His intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine into his bladder.

From crown to rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long and weighs half an ounce.
You're the size of a lime







Here is my 12 week picture!!!  Dad and I will be able to hear your heart beat on Monday!!!  Jilly is coming with us too!
