18 week baby update!

  • Head to bottom the baby is about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a large sweet potatoe!)
  • He weighs almost 7 ounces
  • He is busy flexing her arms and legs (Movements I should start to notice more and more)
  • Myelin (a protective covering) is beginning to form around his nerves, a process that will continue for a year after he is born.
  • If I end up having a girl, her uterous and fallopian tubes are formed and in place.
  • If what I think is true, and I am having a boy, his genitals are noticeable though he may try and hide them from us in an ultrasound (BETTER NOT!)
