Did you know?

I love babies! While some may view it as unfortunate, I view it as a priviledge that I have seen babies at all ages of development in my practice. I have held an 11 week old baby boy, a 17 week old baby girl, a 21 week old baby girl…The 11 week old boy was beautiful. He had fingernails and toenails and was just perfect! I always ask my patients…did you know that…

A baby starts having hiccups 7 weeks after conceived

A baby shows right or left hand dominance 8 weeks after conceived

A baby has its eyebrows 8 weeks after conceived

A baby starts sucking its thumb 9 weeks after conceived

A baby has its toenails and fingernails 10 weeks after conceived

Baby girls move their jaws more often than boys in utero starting at 13 weeks (hmmmm….we do like to talk, don’t we?!)

One thought on “Did you know?

  1. I have never looked at the lost erobyms that way. Instead of feeling only the pain, it is sweet to believe they became guardian angels. I am going to keep that with me. Thank you.(Thanks for your recent comments your raw emotion is so genuine and may even be contagious. I may have cried more reading your congratulatory comment than when I found out myself!)
