FROM INSIDE THE WOMB WEEK TO WEEK

Week to Week Pregnancy Guide

excited just as I did.

Week 6……Exciting, Mummy this is where I develop, I develop my vital organs. My heart begins to beat and pumps blood around my body for survival. And I have these little growths on my body they appear to be my legs and arms.

My Arrival

GOD made a wonderful mother,
A mother who never grows old;
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And He molded her heart of pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks, fair roses you see;
God made a wonderful mother,
And He gave that dear mother to me.

LOVE YOU MUMMY
