Hi Guys,
I wanted to update you
on the progress Tonica is making. So far we have had 4 ultrasounds and each one
is reporting the baby’s progress as further along than our initially projected
conception date, so the whole 11 week 2 day thing is suspect.

The baby is at an
interesting point in its development because it will be doubling in size in the
next 3 weeks. Last time I sent this out the baby was only 7-8 mm in 6 weeks it
has grown to 46 mm (1.8 inches) as of last Wednesday. Here are a few pics:
Here is the last ultrasound
pic taken on Friday:

The head is on the left.
He/She is curled up below mommy’s belly.
Because this is kind of a bad
picture (a newbie tech took it) I also included other pictures of baby’s at this
age would look like.
This picture is the most
accurate in terms of what Tonica’s looks like right now.

As you can see the head is
still much larger than the rest of the body. The legs and torso will begin a
growth spurt soon and will look more like a tiny human. Next week the baby will
look something like this:

Hope all of you are well.
Love,
Tony and Jess
