8 Weeks

"Your baby is now 5/8 of an inch long, about the size of a kidney bean. She's constantly moving and shifting, although you won't be able to feel these womb wiggles for several weeks. Still slightly webbed, her fingers and toes are growing longer. Her knee and elbow joints have formed, so she can now bend both. Breathing tubes extend from her throat to the branches of her developing lungs. The nerve cells in her brain are also branching out, forming primitive neural pathways. The external genitals still haven't developed enough to reveal whether you're having a boy or girl."

Okay so I might have lied to everyone and told them that it was a lima bean. Oops! I read it wrong so please forgive me someday.
