Dear Baby Thompson,
Grandma and Grandpa Dason are counting down HOURS until we see you on the 3D/4D ultrasound (14w1d) tomorrow! I have been surfing the 4D ultrasounds online to get an idea of what you will look like. You will be able to squint, frown, grimace, and possibly suck your thumb! You should be measuring about 3 1/2 to 4 inches and weigh around 1 1/2 ounces!
You are starting to develop an ultra-fine, downy covering of hair, called lanugo, all over your body. Your liver starts making bile this week — a sign that it's doing its job right — and your spleen starts helping in the production of red blood cells. Though Mommy can't feel your tiny strong punches and kicks yet, your little hands and feet (which now measure about 1/2 inch long) are more flexible and active so she is feeling you flutter around like a butterfly.
Tomorrow when I post, I will actually stop calling you baby bean, or baby Thompson and will call you by name! Can't wait!!!!
Love, Grandma Dason
