Create 2/5/2010
9 weeks have flown by and we have really accomplished nothing! In a way we have a good excuse! I have been wretched sick this week! So sick that we were unable to take a 9 week picture. Fortunately not much has changed and for sure the nursery is still a mess! We will get a 10 week picture I promise! Nothing exciting happened this week. I have dropped a few pounds but I am sure those will come back in the 2nd trimester.
How is Baby Growing?
We have elbows! Baby is now approximately 13-17 mm crown to rump length, or about 0.51 - 0.66 inches, about the size of an olive! S/he also weighs in at 1 gram! Toe rays are present as the toes begin to form. Gonads have become testes (for boys) or ovaries (for girls). Baby will move away if touched through the uterine wall, and can spontaneously move as well. Ossification (hardening) of the bones may begin.
The bump.com provides the wonderful comparisons...(I have gone through the other posts and added the appropriate weeks picture)
Until next time...
