Pip – Week Thirteen

May 8, 2009  |  Baby  |  No Comments

Latest developments from Pip:

  • Mummy and Daddy have been referring to me as “him” so far, but have just switched to “her” to be fair on me. #
  • I’m growing really fast now – almost 3 inches long. #
  • I now weigh about an ounce – that’s approximately the same as half a banana… #
  • Mummy & Daddy have collected my first Bounty Pack – my first nappy is safely stored in my baby-change bag ready for when I arrive! #
  • My fingerprints are now in place – amazing! #
  • If I’m a girl I already have approximately 2 million eggs in my ovaries; if I’m a boy, there won’t be nearly as many ;o) #
  • Woohoo – my ears are in the right place now! #
  • Mummy is still feeling sick a lot of the time and tires easily – sorry Mum. #

Pip – Week Twelve

Latest developments from Pip:

  • Well that’s pretty much everything in the right place now – from tooth buds to toenails. #
  • Daddy has asked me to say ‘hi’ to all my new visitors – can’t wait to meet you all in person. #
  • Apparently I’m ‘starting to look more human’ now – how rude!! #
  • I’ve started my second Trimester – woohoo! #
  • My liver is now making bile and my kidneys are secreting urine in the bladder – what a beautiful mental image. #
  • Out with Mummy & Daddy to have my photo taken – we’re all looking forward to it. #
  • Loved having my photo taken – think I may have wriggled a little too much though ;o) #
  • Have a look and see what you think: http://snipurl.com/pip-first-scan #
  • Apparently I will be in here a little longer than first thought. D-day is now 11th November, not 8th. Good job I like it in here… #
  • If you prod Mummy’s tummy I’ll squirm – but Mummy still won’t feel me move for a while yet. Imagine the fun I can have when she does ;o) #
  • My reflexes are starting to kick in – touching my palms makes my fingers close, & touching the soles of my feet makes the toes curl down. #
