11 Weeks

(I used my own ultrasound pics from today instead of a generic picture from the web.)


-Baby is 1.5 to 2.75 inches and weighs approx. 8 grams.

-Baby's length will more than double in the next 3 weeks.

-My uterus is almost big enough to fill my pelvic area.

-Baby's fingernails appear this week.

-Inside baby's abdomen the intestines are forming.

-Baby is able to swallow and urinate into the amniotic fluid, which is continually filtered out and replaced.

-All vital organs are formed and for the most part function normally.

-At this point baby will continue to grow in size and efficiency.

Me too!!! And it IS totally possible to love someone you've never met. Brent will always have a very special place in my heart and this baby has already stolen a piece too. I love you sweetheart. I can't wait to hold this little boy or girl in my arms, but not until April. Mom
