10 weeks!

Chubby is 10 weeks today!

From Pregnancy.org…
· Baby is now called a fetus in "medical terms". You, however, may have chosen the name "peanut," "angel," "jumping bean" or simply "miracle."
· The most critical part of your infant's development is complete. Now you are headed into a period of rapid growth.
· While a bit strange to envision, your baby's head is now about half its length - Soon the rest of the body's growth will catch up but this area is prepared to keep up with the rapid brain development!
· Eyelids fuse shut and irises begin to develop - Eye color is also determined by this point.
· Placenta begins to function this week or next - The placenta is the organ responsible for both the provision of nutrients along with the removal of waste to keep your baby growing strong!
· Your baby will be about 1.22 inch long (3.1cm) and weigh 0.14 ounce (4gm) at the end of this week

CONGRATS GIRLS... you are getting there. This is it. There is no turning back now. I cry when I think that our baby will not be alone in the world but have a half sibling out there!!! It's weird and amazing all at the same time.
Are you guys going to find out the sex???
