So I had another appointment today, this time w/ Dr. McCann. She couldn't find the baby's heart rate either, so they did another ultrasound. This picture turned out way better. Can you see the brain inside his/her head? And the arms up by his/her face? Looking more & more like a baby! The heart rate was 153 beats per minute.
At only 13 weeks, fingerprints have formed on our baby's tiny fingertips, his/her veins and organs are clearly visible through her still-thin skin, and his/her body is starting to catch up with the head- which makes up just a third of its body size now. If we're having a girl, she now has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries. Our baby is almost 3 inches long (the size of a medium shrimp) and weighs nearly an ounce. Most of our baby's critical development is almost completed. Can you say amazing! What an awesome Creator we have!
