Week Six
I copied this from a website. It's so confusing. I am in my 6th week but I am 5 weeks and 5 days pregnant.... Glad they know how to figure it all out. Anyway, I thought this was so interesting.
I am feeling good today. So far no stomach issues. PRAISE GOD!
The arms and legs continue to develop - These limbs are stretching out more and more. Later on you will be feeling those feet and elbows up close and personal right in your bladder!
Brain is growing well - Did you know that over the course of the remaining months that your baby's brain will develop over 100 billion neurons? This is just the beginning!
Lenses of the eyes appear - If you could catch a glimpse inside, you would notice your baby's appearance becoming increasing like a newborn's.
Nostrils are formed - The position of the nose seems to shift into its proper place as well. Soon, the nerves running from the nose to the brain appear.
Intestines grow - Initially these are actually located outside the baby's body within the umbilical cord.
Pancreas - Your baby is now equipped to deal with digestive enzymes and take on processing the insulin and glucagons the body needs to function.

I found that 5 weeks/6th week thing confusing too. It's like Birthdays. You're in your 1st year, but you don't say you're 1 year until that year is up. Congrats to the growing fam!!!
