Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden. She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
It's a good thing that these hiccups are tiny and quiet or else Bill would freak out. He HATES hiccups. It is the most bizarre thing ever, but they actually make him angry when I get them and I can't get them to stop right away. What can I say, I married a lovable weirdo.
