It has been 2 Weeks

From the first week (first picture) during conception to week 5 (second picture), we have made some little progress since. We would like to thank Jesus for His guardian & care that we have made good progress into week 5 now. In fact, according to the doctor he still can't see anything on the ultrasound screen (yet) and he asked me not to be too happy or too excited about it first (ok I will try not to get too excited over it first but I do pray that all is well). Hopefully, we can see the little healthy embryo soon.... can't wait! :) To learn more detailed about your womb, see picture #3.

Besides, today I felt that my breasts are not as sensitive as in the previous 2 weeks. Hopefully nothing wrong with it.

~ Dear Father Jesus, we need your special angel guardian & care in helping us to watch after our little embryo inside me to grow into a strong and healthy baby. Thank you Havenly Father Jesus. In Jesus name we prayed, Amen. ~

Deep in your uterus your embryo is growing at a furious pace. At this point, he's about the size of a sesame seed (see picture above), and he looks more like a tiny tadpole than a human. He's now made up of three layers — the ectoderm, the mesoderm, and the endoderm — which will later form all of his organs and tissues.

The neural tube — from which your baby's brain, spinal cord, nerves, and backbone will sprout — is starting to develop in the top layer, called the ectoderm. This layer will also give rise to his skin, hair, nails, mammary and sweat glands, and tooth enamel.

His heart and circulatory system begin to form in the middle layer, or mesoderm. (This week, in fact, his tiny heart begins to divide into chambers and beat and pump blood.) The mesoderm will also form your baby's muscles, cartilage, bone, and subcutaneous (under skin) tissue.

The third layer, or endoderm, will house his lungs, intestines, and rudimentary urinary system, as well as his thyroid, liver, and pancreas. In the meantime, the primitive placenta and umbilical cord, which deliver nourishment and oxygen to your baby, are already on the job.
