This week, nothing's really new. Well, the gum bleeding is slowing down and my belly is getting bigger to me at least. Baby's getting more active as well. I felt pretty good actually. I think the only thing bothering me is when it was about time to do the ultrasound. I thought I have prepared myself for it but apparently not that well. Everything is fine which is great. I'm going to redo a lot of things around here so I'm not going to write too much for now. I'll be sure to come back to do an update though. So, stay tuned!
How my baby's growing:
Your baby weighs about 8 1/2 ounces, and he measures 6 inches, head to bottom — about the length of a small zucchini. His arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of his body now. His kidneys continue to make urine, and the hair on his scalp is sprouting. This is a crucial time for sensory development: Your baby's brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. If your baby is a girl, she has an astonishing 6 million eggs in her ovaries. They'll dwindle to fewer than two million by the time she's born.
