Well, it's a big week. The 12th week. The end of the first trimester!!! They say that can be the most difficult trimester and once your through that the baby is much "safer".
This week the baby's face becomes more defined as the chin and nose become more refined. (Just a side note Katie is hoping the child get's my nose- a weird thing to hope for, but there you go!) This week also marks the arrival of fingernails and toenails- pick away little one! This week the baby will also be at around 3 inches long and the heartbeat could increase a couple of beats a minute!
We are at the end of Katie's assignment at Windy Gap and it was an incredible month. It's hard to believe it could go so quickly. We both head home tomorrow and I am sure that much of her life will consist of sleeping, resting, napping, and going to bed. Katie deserves it, she's worked hard this month and created a child all at the same time.
We go to the doctor on Tuesday for the first ultrasound. We should be able to hear a heartbeat, definitley have updates on how that goes.
Pray that all goes well at the doctor and that development looks normal and healthy.
