Week 10

It is Week 10. You guys haven't been easy on Auntie "S" because she has been feeling very yucky. She took her last progesterone shot yesterday. Your daddy and papa are so glad because she has one less thing to suffer.

You are now nearly an inch and a half long and the size of a prune. You are taking a human shape now. Bones and cartilage are forming and small indentations on the legs are developing into knees and ankles. Your arms can flex already. Although they are taking shape and getting stronger, each one is only about the size of this number 1.

Your tooth bud fairy is making an appearance this week but they won't break through the gums until you are close to six months old. Your other systems are a go, too. Stomach is producing digestive juices, the kidneys are producing large quantities of urine, and if you are a boy, you are already producing testosterone!! 

You and Autie "S" are our gold star. We are counting down the days to hold your little hands.

Here is a song for Autie "S" and you two little ones.
