12 Weeks

Baby is the size of a plum!

The average fetus at 12 weeks is about 2.1 inches long and .49 ounces. Now that babyhas got pretty much all it's parts, it's main job is to keep on growing.

• Most of baby's critical systems are fully formed!
• Baby is about to enter the growth and maturation stage, in which it's organs and tissues will grow and develop rapidly.
• Baby is now developing reflexes -- if you poke it's body, it will likely move.
• Baby is opening and closing it's fingers and curling it's toes, too.
• Baby's brain is developing fast!

Holy bucket's 3 months just flew by!!! At our appointment Matt and I got to hear the baby's heartbeat. 150/ bpm. Matt was amazed! We asked our doctor lots of ?'s or well I did since I need to know about certain foods(myth or fact). She also let us know that she will not induce me, but will not let me go past 42 weeks.. Yeah my body..NOT.lol
