What a week it has been. This last week has been a little tough in that I was sick for a few days and now suffer from a toothache that is preventing me from sleeping. I am thankful that it is Monday so that I can work with my doctor on possible remedies.
Here is how the baby is growing this week: Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
