Week 4 changes (days 21-28)

  Changes this week....
 Fetuses grow from 5-10mm to 14-16mm, faces take shape, eyes and spinal cords continue to develop  At this stage the embryos are most susceptible to defects and it is said that eating a toxic substance at this stage can cause eyes to not form properly, or cause cleft palate. (do not worry we are being very careful)  The dam may have a clear, odorless vaginal discharge, and her teats may begin to develop. this is true for Piper for sure.  Her actual nipples are very large! And her milk line continues to droop!
