7 weeks

This is the embryo's hand at 6 weeks 6 days -


and here it is just 3 days later -


Our baby has an amazing growth spurt this week more than doubling in size (from 4 -5 mm to 11-13mm). So from the size of a pea to the size of a black bean! Our baby's tail is continuing to shrink while the brain and heart area are becoming more complex. The eyelid fold are forming as well as the tip of the nose and the arms now bend at the elbows.
