Week 7
Baby
This week baby is about ¾ inches long and is about the size of an eraser of the tip of your pencil! Your baby’s hands and feet are beginning to emerge as the arms and legs continue to grow. All of the essential organs, including the lungs have begun to form in his tiny body. The hair follicles are forming, as well as the eyelids and tongue. The digestive system and the stomach are starting to form.
