the body worlds exhibit is very similar - it is at the Minneapolis Science Center now and is traveling the country. they preserved a fetus at several stages of development - i was amazed at how perfectly formed they are even at 8 weeks - they are babies, just miniature.

I wish there was something like that over here i am utterly fascinated by embryos and fetus perfect miniture form. It truely is miraculous. If i had my time over i would have been an embryologist or a pernitalologist i'd never get bored of it.
I think my baby must be a fair size by now but i'm not showing a whole lot, all the books say the baby is about 13cm long but it's still tiny isn't it? I just don't take things for granted like i used to. I now realise how fragile this precious baby inside of me is. I am really looking forward to being alot bigger in the belly because that will mean my baby is bigger and healthy. I have my morphology scan in 4 days :)!

Yea, the whole thing is rather amazing. At 8 weeks they do look like a tiny baby, but the proportions are different.

I think I would really like being a doula sometime. Not sure how I'd accomplish that in my current situation, though. LOL Either that or a concert photographer. ;)
I think being a perinatologist would be great, although probably difficult at times.
