The Cockeye is now the size of a lime!
The cockey currently enjoys a 1:1 ratio between body and head, and had skin so transparent that blood vessels show right through it. But fingers and toes are no longer webbed, and hair follicles, tooth buds and nail beds are forming - setting up a significantly more attractive future (not that we had to worry about how attractive the cockey will be - i mean just look at his/her parents!
The cockeye (now about two inches long) has been pretty busy this week, growing hair follicles, fingernails, and ovaries (if its a girl). The cockey has distinct human characteristics by now, with hands and feet in front of the cockey's body, with ears nearly in their final shape, open nasal passages on the tip of its tiny nose, a tongue and palate in the mouth and visible nipples. what else makes the cockey look human? Those hands and feet have individual fingers and toes (meaning good-bye to those frog like webbed hands and feet)
Tomorrow marks one week until our ultrasound - I know that i am pretty pumped about it - i can only imagine how excited mike is!
