Dear Gracyn,
Mommy is 18 weeks pregnant!!! According to babycenter.com, head to rump, you are about 5 1/2 inches long (about the length of a bell pepper) and you should weigh almost 7 ounces. We will find out for sure tonight at the ultrasound!!!!! You are also busy flexing your arms and legs — movements that Mommy feels consistently now!!! Your blood vessels are visible through your thin skin, and your ears are now in their final position, although they're still standing out from your head a bit. A protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around your nerves, a process that will continue for a year after you're born. Since you are a girl, your uterus and fallopian tubes are formed and in place. Mommy is looking forward to a second confirmation that you are indeed a girl at tonight's ultrasound! I am pretty sure the last ultrasound was accurate....we definitely didn't see any boy parts between your legs! :-)
I am looking forward to seeing you again tonight during the ultrasound.
Love you soooooo very much!
Grandma Dason
