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.
