Week 12 of Pregnancy

What is happening with your baby?
This week your baby will begin to take on more of a normal appearance as the eyes move closer together and the ears move closer to their final position. The intestines have grown so fast that they actually extend into the umbilical cord, but they will begin to move back into the abdomen. The kidneys can now secrete urine, and the nervous system is continuing to mature. Your baby may have developed more complicated reflexes such as sucking.*

How big is your baby?
Your baby is 3.15 inches long and weighs 1 ounce by the end of this week.*


I'll definitely be needing maternity clothes soon. Even though I've lost 3 pounds since I found out I was pregnant my belly is getting bigger. Thank goodness Steven's sister just had a baby and I might be able to wear some of her maternity clothes. I have a dr. appt this week so I'll be posting more about the baby after that.
