Welcome to week 12 of your amazing journey. This week baby is 2 1/4 inches long and weighs about half an ounce. Almost all of your little one's bodily structures have been formed and now they will continue developing an evolving so they will be fully functioning by the time she's born.

This was my very first interview on the BumpCast and I'm so glad it was with my good friend Dr. Tiffany Hubman. Please enjoy the interview as she talks about her first pregnancy and getting an emergency cerclage.

Welcome to week 11 of your journey, mamas! Make sure you stay tuned for the interview this week! There's a wealth of knowledge from Annie Schlecht on pregnancy sleep tips, baby massage, Reiki sessions, and good sleep habits for babies and parents. She also has a webinar coming up that you do not want to miss!

Welcome to Week 10!

This week, baby is the size of a prune or kumquat and weighs in at less than a quarter of an ounce. She has reached the beginning of what's known as the fetal period and is no longer considered an Embryo, so congratulations on hitting this milestone!

This is week 7 of your journey! At about the size of a blueberry, your baby has doubled in size since last week and measures about ¼ to half an inch from crown to rump. While this still sounds very tiny, imagine that your baby is now 10,000 times larger than she was at conception. Most of that growth is concentrated in her head, with brain cells being generated at about 100 cells per minute!

This Week we are talking about Week 6 of your pregnancy!

Right now, your baby is about the size of a lentil or a sweet pea! While she still looks a little like an alien, baby's nose, mouth and ears are developing and her eyes look like dark little spots on the side of her head. Her little arms and legs are also starting to pop out in the form of little buds.

Measuring your little one at this stage is usually done from the crown of her head to her cute little rump and at week 6, this measurement is about 1/5th to a ¼ inch long. Her heart is beating at 100-160 beats per minute, about twice as fast as your own.

Our guest this week is Mama Amy Dietrich who shares her awesome labor and birth story with us!

Congratulations on your pregnancy! You're 5 weeks pregnant and that means, there's a ton of tiny miracles happening inside your tummy right now. Each growing, dividing cell is something wonderful to be thankful for.
