Your Body, Your Baby
TWO
MONTHS - By 8 weeks the embryo grows to 1/2 an inch, the
major muscles system develops and she moves gracefully like a good
swimmer although you can't feel it yet. This tiny human is perfectly
developed with long, tapering fingers, feet and toes and whose skin
is almost transparent with a highway of delicate arteries and veins
visible to the ends of the fingers.
By 10 weeks
20 tiny baby teeth are forming in the gums, she squints, swallows,
moves her tongue, and if you stroke her palm, will make a tight
fist. The toes will develop in the next few days and brain waves
can be measured.
Did
you know? By nine weeks the developing baby can hiccup
and react to load noises. This might explain why I still hiccup
at loud concerts
