I had my 2nd ultrasound today! I'm 5 weeks & 6 days pregnant. The heart beat was visible on this ultrasound. To me it looks like a little peapod instead of an appleseed! I thought I'd share how my baby has changed in the last few weeks:

4 weeks & 3 days, Baby's neural tube forms, heart begins to form, and blood begins to circulate.

4 weeks & 6 days, Baby's liver begins to function.

5 weeks & 5 days, Baby's limb buds are noticeable now.

5 weeks & 6 days, Baby's mouth, jaw, and esophagus are forming.

6 weeks, Baby's heart begins to beat, although only visible through ultrasound.

My next visit to the doctor will be on April 21st & we are hoping that Doug will be able to go too!
