13 Week Update - Last week of the first trimester!


Baby Curtis is 2.9 inches long and weighs up to .8 ounces - about the size of a media shrimp. He/she is significantly larger, but is still pretty tiny!

By the end of pregnancy week 13, Baby Curtis looks like a tiny yet fully formed baby. While his/her head is still quite large, his/her body is starting to catch up. The eyes are starting to move closer together - up until this point in time, they rested closely along the sides of the head.

Baby Curtis' fingertips, veins and organs are clearly visible through his/her still-thin skin, and his/her body is starting to catch up with its head — which makes up just a third of the body size now. If we are having a girl, she now has more than 2 million eggs in her ovaries.
