"Big Sister" wk11


I did not tell Madelyn to add the "ladies and gentleman part". She just did it when I started filming!! Silly gal!



Our baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. His/Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under its gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
Its already busy kicking and stretching, and its 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. I won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will I notice the hiccuping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
