Week 6


Today is my last day of week 6! I just started writing in a lovely little pregnancy journal. It's really helped me connect with the baby forming inside of me. One of the questions in the journal asked me to imagine the baby's heart beating with mine. Wow! I have 2 hearts beating inside of me this week. That is truly amazing.

In this 6th week:

-The baby's heart has started beating!
-The cells now form an oblong body.
-Brain cells and the spinal cord are forming.
-The nerve cells that spark consciousness are formed.
-Arm buds and eyes are starting to appear!
