Pepper's 13 Week Update

From Babyfit.com

Age of Fetus—11 weeks

The growth of your baby is rapid and the head to rump length will double in the next 3 weeks. The baby's vocal cords are developing in the larynx but the baby will not make sounds until birth. This week all of the baby's twenty baby teeth have formed in the gums!

Other changes that are happening:

Your baby's external genitalia are starting to show distinguishing characteristics.
The baby's intestines are moving from the umbilical cord to the abdomen.
The baby's pancreas is now producing insulin.
Baby's Size and Weight this week: About 2 1/2 to 3 inches.

Right now your baby is about the size of a nectarine.


So interesting yeah??? I'm still waiting for the morning sickness to go away - even just a little bit. I did go swimming the other day which was awesome. I'll need to do that more often. It was so great.

I'm off to take a nap and then I'll be heading over to the Ritz-Carlton to take a holiday picture of all the Concierge ladies. Can't wait to see them all!
