Our baby is about 5.5 to 6 inches long about the length of a bell pepper and weighs around 7 ounces this week. The blood vessels can be seen through baby Hertel's skin and a protective covering of myelin is beginning to form around the nerves (this process lasts for an entire year after baby graces us with their presence). Genitals are now noticeable through ultrasound...but we will have to wait for our twenty week checkup to see what the sex is (November 5th).
