WEEK 10: NEURONS MULTIPLY


By now your baby's vital organs have a solid foundation. The embryonic tail has disappeared completely, and your baby has fully seperated fingers and toes. The bones of your baby's skeleton begin to form.
This week your baby's brain will begin to produce almost 250,000 new neurons every minute.
Your baby's eyelids are no longer transparent. The outer ears are starting to assume their final form, and tooth buds are forming as well. If your baby is a boy, his testes will begin producing the male hormone testosterone.
