This is the happy news babycenter.com shared with me today. =)
Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. His/Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
He/She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as his/her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
This sure was fun to read! Last I heard my baby was still a little bean with one nub for an arm. (Pictured above:8 weeks). I am now 11 weeks along and doing great! =)
