Pregnancy Week 5


Your baby now looks like a tiny tadpole, complete with a cute little tail, and yes you will think it is cute...trust me.  Also, it has grown to the size of an orange seed. The circulatory system along with the heart is the first organ system to become functional.  And if you are lucky enough to get an ultrasound this early, you may be able to see it's little heartbeat! In addition to the heart, the neural tube is also under construction...this will eventually become your baby's brain and spinal cord...so start those prenatal vitamins with DHA now!

By this point your body should be a checklist of the early pregnancy symptoms: nausea, tender boobs, fatigue, and of course a missed period; at it is at this point when your pee become magic and will turn that little line a nice dark +, or if you're like me a bright "pregnant" sign on the digital tester.
