Today I am 10 weeks pregnant which means that the baby’s major organs have now formed. And even more of the little details are begining to appear, such as fingernails! The limbs are developing with writsts, fingers and toes. The arms become bent at the elbow and likewise the legs have three distinct parts, thight, calf and foot.
The baby’s heart achieves its final form and beats at 140-150 times per minute, which is about two times faster than mine. The baby can actually respond to touch and is moving more and more, however at this stage I still won’t be able to feel any movements yet.
I was hoping to have a baby belly photo for you at 10 weeks however due to the rush of Easter there just has not been time. From now on we will do our best to take a photo every thursday to go with the week by week growth update.
