the inside story

Just thought you might like to know what is going on with baby that we can't see. According to the last ultrasound, I am 7 weeks along. That means that last week, baby's fingernails began forming as well as it's tiny lips. This week, eyelids and toes are taking shape. Baby's nose is even distinct. This is the week that baby begins kicking and swimming, although I can't feel it yet. I'm looking forward to Thursday's ultrasound. By that time (or sometime the following week) every single organ will be in place and baby will be able to hear. If baby can't decide between opera and rap, blame me.
