I am now officially 8 weeks along....
Here is what is happening with our little one....
- Cartilage and bones begin to form - At the end of this week your baby will have already completed 1/5th of the journey 'til his birthday!
- The basic structure of the eye is well underway - The position is more "newborn" like already!
- The tongue begins to develop
- Intestines move out of the umbilical cord into the abdomen.
- Body grows and makes room - Two months along and this little one is growing inside and out by leaps and bounds!
- The fingers and toes have appeared but are webbed and short
- Baby's length (crown to rump) is 0.61 inch (1.6cm) and weight is 0.04 ounce (1gm)

Are you having an alien?
Lurve.
yeah kind of looks like that doesn't it!!! the graphic on the facebook pregnancy countdown is even scarier! I am excited when the baby looks a little more human.....
Awwww! But isn't it amazing how that itty bitty alien-like thingy doey has all the information inside of it to become a baby, and then a toddler, and eventually an adult like us?!
That's the work of God right there!
Yeah, has to be uncomfortable to have your intestines in your umbilical cord, ouch. Glad to see you still blogging - Mama Meier!
