I have the What to Expect.com app on my iPhone and I love it! Here is what's happening this week. I love reading these updates, it's so amazing how many things are going on---and how fast it all happens!
Week 13
Your fetus is about three inches long and the size of a peach this week. Though your baby's head is about half the size of its body now, by the time your baby is ready to make his or her entrance into the world, the head will only be one-fourth as large as the body.
Your baby's intestines are also in for some big changes right now. Up till this point, they've been growing in a cavity inside the umbillical cord; but now they're moving to their permanent address, in your baby's abdomen. And to serve your baby's growing needs, the placenta is also growing. It weights about an ounce now and will weigh one to two pounds at birth.
Also developing this week: your baby's vocal chords. Because sound can't travel through your uterus, you won't be able to hear any sounds or cries just yet.
Simply amazing! I get weekly updates from three different websites, babycenter.com said that the fingerprints have formed and if it's a girl, she has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries!
It's FRIDAY! Yay! I have a farewell party for a co-worker at the hotel tonight, one of the three people who have quit in the last two weeks. It's going to be interesting to see what happens in the next days/months.
Tomorrow Joe is golfing at 2 and as soon as he gets home we're leaving for Seattle. His aunt from Brazil, Anna, has been attending the New York Fashion Academy in Seattle and she has her final project/fashion show tomorrow night at 7 so all of us girls are going. Should be fun!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
