8 weeks!

This is pregnancy week 8! It's my own little milestone, but one that I am thrilled about, from here on out every 4 weeks is a decent milestone but every week in and of itself is wonderful. The photo is of course not me, but too cute, especially for a gender neutral icon!

So, this week, here is what FertilityFriend has to say about Peanut.

Your Baby This Coming Week

Your baby measures about 0.9 to 1.2 inches (2.2 to 3cm) from crown to rump. Your baby's arms and legs are longer and her hands are flexed at the wrist. The head is growing more erect and the neck is more developed. On an ultrasound, you may see your baby moving, though you still can not feel this. The organs are forming. Ears are developed and the eyelids have begun to cover up your baby's eyes. Hands and feet appear as well as small buds which will become fingers and toes. The paddles of your baby's hands have clearly defined finger ridges now, with the tissue between them (which previously made them look webbed) reducing to leave separate fingers. Your baby's back has started to straighten slightly and the tail is now shrinking. The head still seems large and is curved forwards on her chest. Your baby is starting to look like a tiny person!

And since the ticker on the bottom is kind of tough to read I'll paste it here too. I'm not excited or anything... lol

Peanut's little ticker, the turtle is because it always seem to take forever to meet baby!
