A growth spurt is coming, the baby is between 4.5 to 4.75 inches now weighing in at 3.5oz now but in the next few weeks it will double in weight. The legs are more developed along with the position of the head/neck being more erect and the eyes and ears being close to there final position. The heart is pumping around 25 quarts of blood each day. Our baby has hiccups that are caused by the diaphragm although they don't create sound because there is no air to make noises. Our prenatal appointment went well last Tuesday, everything is going smoothly thus far... and babies heart beat was around 148 bpm. November 5th will be the big day... little Hertel will finally be known as girl Hertel or boy Hertel.
