8 weeks

We now have webbed fingers and toes instead of "paddles!!" :) See the info from Babycenter.com about the 8th week of pregnancy.



Your pregnancy: 8 weeks






New this week: Webbed fingers and toes are poking out from your baby's hands and feet, his eyelids practically cover his eyes, breathing tubes extend from his throat to the branches of his developing lungs, and his "tail" is just about gone. In his brain, nerve cells are branching out to connect with one another, forming primitive neural pathways. You may be daydreaming about your baby as one sex or the other, but the external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or a girl. Either way, your baby — about the size of a kidney bean — is constantly moving and shifting, though you still can't feel it.



Below is a picture of a kidney bean! Growing, growing, growing!! :)
