Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her 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. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
Doctor's Appointment Alert! I go in for the 12 week check-up next Thursday. I am excited to hear Kiddo's heart beating again. I'm not excited about having to go through the ordeal of attempting to pee in a cup again.
They are going to probably do a vaginal ultrasound, just wait. That is the best. At least you are getting a warning. They just sprung the probe on me and told me to take my clothes off. We were a little suprised:)
