As your first trimester comes to a close (WOOHOO), your fetus (who seems to be working its way through the produce section) has reached the size of a peach, about 3 inches long. Your baby's head is now about half the size of his or her crown to rump length, but that cute little body is picking up steam and will continue growing overtime ( at birth, our baby will be one quarter head, three quarters body). Meanwhile, your baby's intestines, which have been growing inside the umbilical cord, are now starting their trek to their permanent position inside your baby's abdomen. Also developing this week: your baby's vocal cords (the better to cry with...soon).
I am so excited to be almost done with my first trimester. Just super excited for this baby.
Also want to just say that I love AJ so much! He is just the most amazing husband ever.
