Punkin's heartbeat... 139 beat per minute |

The yolk sac that developed early in the first month is now nonfunctional and will diminish in size. It remains a tiny lump of useless tissue until birth, when it is expelled as part of the afterbirth.
CRL stands for "Crown to Rump Length" of Punkin |
Swellings are developing where the external ears will eventually be. Punkin's upper lip is beginning to form. His/Her intestines are beginning to form with the umbilical cord. There is a shortage of space within Punkin's gut and it's due to the massive liver and 2 sets of kidneys. The cells that will produce Punkin's eggs or sperm actually form in the yolk sace and then migrate to the pelvis in a day or two.
Amy has been having more headaches and her pants are starting to fit a bit tighter, though she's only gained 1 lb so far.
