Growing
Hmmm... may have to rethink this outfit since I didn't realise quite how "Peter Pan" it is. Still, here's the proof that the belly has landed. Got my first seat on the bus yesterday, albeit not without a bit of glaring.

Ultrasound photos
Staring right at the "camera" (head is on the right and baby is on its back - you can see the eye sockets). How cute is that little chin?

Itty-bitty baby feet - those two white blobs near the top of the screen are the little feet! It was a lot clearer when we saw it on the big screen, but if you look closely you can see little toes on one of them.

Our first glance
What you're seeing here is a five week-old embryo floating around in his/her "gestational sac" (the black area). (Note - five weeks one day is the gestational age, seven weeks one day in pregnancy terms.)
One centimetre long, but already with a little heartbeat that flickers on-screen - 123 beats a minute! We even got to hear it - thump-thump-thump. In addition to a heart, this embryo is already developing facial features, some limb buds and some primitive internal organs. But it still looks pretty extraterrestrial.
