Pregnancy Week 7

This week of pregnancy, your baby is about 1/3 of an inch in length (crown-to-rump)- about the size of a small bean. The lenses of the eyes are forming and the middle portion of the ears continue to develop. Your baby's brain is developing rapidly and limbs and facial features are forming.

The heart bulges from the body and now has a right and left chamber. Intestines are developing, the appendix is also present at this week. Cavities and passages necessary for circulation of spinal fluid have formed.

Changes in You:

You may be still experiencing morning sickness and most likely haven't gained more than a few pounds. People probably can't tell you're pregnant, just by looking at your belly.

Your face might be breaking out by now, because of the increase of hormones, such as progesterone. Or some lucky women have a clearer complexion during pregnancy! Drinking plenty of water will help keep your complexion looking it's best.
