Notice: this email says the baby is a girl ;)

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.

Is this from your doctor and they told you that you are having a girl or is this from a book?

How exciting! I always loved hearing what the baby was like at each week of the pregnancy. I think it is a sign too!

That's a long time to wait! You won't be able to go shopping until then.
