For just a wee lime, that’s quite a trick
Gagging on my own spitYet e’er grateful for your lil’ heart tick
Headaches that never quit
"The most dramatic development this week: Reflexes.
Your baby's fingers will soon begin to open and close, toes will curl, eye muscles will clench, and its mouth will make sucking movements.
In fact, if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although you won't be able to feel it. Its intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into its abdominal cavity about now, and its kidneys will begin excreting urine into his bladder. From crown to rump, your baby-to-be is just over two inches long (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce."
Lord, thank you for limericks and thank you for rhymes.
But thank you, even more so, for little limes.
