Emily
is now two inches long. She now begins
to urinate. Muscle movements are becoming
more co-ordinated. Although she is totally
immersed, she keeps inhaling and exhaling
just enough to send the salty fluid into
and out of her lungs. But she does not
drown because she gets oxygen in her blood
brought in by the umbilical cord, not
from the air, Her ribs are now rapidly
forming.
