Tito this week (week 10)



Tito can now be a suspect of a crime since Tito has already got distinct fingerprints. Mom is doing just fine, bar the few moments the past weekend where she seriously had to consider whether she wants to risk eating. Mostly she's just a cow that basically "eats twice". It might be due to the fact that Tito started moving (can't feel it yet) or apparently is already amazed with its surroundings, trying to grab onto things and it might be grabbing my colon.
Tito has undergone a status change this week too: from embryo to fetus. It will, however, always be just Tito to us. We are also glad to report that Tito is now over the most critical stage in terms of development (from here on only 3% chance of miscarraige), and will from now on mostly grow - hopefully not the head, but the body, since the head is now about half its length (it must have mom's brains...), and need to have some of dad's charactaristics too.
Under the compeleted eyelids we are manufacturing eyes this week, and this is one thing mom hopes Tito will inherit from dad - those big brown eyes (the colour to be determined this week...)
I might also be switching on my placenta this week, so I will become a feeding scheme and a garbage disposal all in one...from now on I am therefore also a guilt-free nibbler, since I am officially "eating for two"!
If all is well, Tito will clock in 4 grams by the end of this week, and be 3.1 cm long...
