My baby will begin moving! I won’t be able to feel him but he will be moving.
“Your baby’s heart (which is starting to divide into the right and left chambers) is beating about 100 to 130 beats per minute — almost twice as fast as yours — and blood is beginning to circulate through her body. Her intestines are developing and tiny breathing passages are beginning to appear where her lungs will be. She’s also starting to build muscle fibers and, halfway through this week, she’ll likely start moving her tiny limbs. Unfortunately, you’ll probably have to wait until you’re several weeks into your second trimester before you get to enjoy feeling your baby’s calisthenics.”
