Today I'm 13 weeks, 4 days. There's not much new to report, except that my belly seems to have grown over the past week. (Or maybe it's just the horizontal stripes.)
Here's what the baby has been working on this week:
Week 13
Fingerprints have formed on your baby's tiny fingertips, her veins and organs are clearly visible through her still-thin skin, and her body is starting to catch up with her head — which makes up just a third of her body size now. If you're having a girl, she now has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries. Your baby is almost 3 inches long (the size of a medium shrimp) and weighs nearly an ounce.

I always loved the descriptions the books have of the developing baby. "Oh my god, we're having a giant headed shrimp!!!" Or in some books, your baby is always the size of some sort of food - a pea, an almond, a peach... Dig the baby Tootle belly stripes though.
Love that belly! Definitely "showing" now! As Harper would say, "Yay Hoo!"
You're looking more like your Dad every day with that beer belly.
The difference is..... you look good with your bulge. (: .
Love you, Dad
You look great, erica! YAY TOOTLE BABY. Are you guys finding out the sex of the booger?
Funny, I was going to comment on the exact same thing as Ethan. Hmmm . . .
Towards the end they stop using so many food metaphors . . . I think once you get past melon they don't want freak you out!
Yay !!! Your first trimester is almost coming to a close : ) Seeing as how you didn't get sick during your first trimester then your second should be even better. Have you had food cravings yet?
