7 Weeks: Blueberry

Shorty is now the size of a blueberry! WOW! My .51-inch embryo doesn't exactly tip the scales just yet but she's developing like crazy. She's already doubled in size since last week. Yes, "it" is currently a girl at this moment, so we call it she. I hope it stays a girl 


At 7 weeks:

• She's generating about one hundred new brain cells each minute!
• Not only is her brain becoming more complex, but her heart is too.
• Also important: She's developing a permanent set of kidneys
• Her arm and leg joints are now forming.
