Emily
is now half an inch long. The amnion sac
is wrinkled because some fluid is seeped
out. Just over her head is the vein lined
yolk sac, attached by its blood filled
stalk. Her eyes are now wide open, though
still without eyelids or irises; the black
colour is the reflection at the back of
the eye. Her fingers, growing fast, have
reached the first joint, though they are
still webbed, as are the toes.
