I am now 4 days into the know. Four days ago, my life changed forever just from one simple test. Thus, I begin my weekly bump updates :-)
Baby:
Right now thebaby is an embryo the size of a poppy seed, consisting of two layers: the epiblast and the hypoblast, from which all of her organs and body parts will develop.
The primitive placenta is also made up of two layers at this point. Its cells are tunneling into the lining of your uterus, creating spaces for your blood to flow so that the developed placenta will be able to provide nutrients and oxygen to mygrowing baby when it starts to function at the end of this week.
