I had seen a few of these before - but they are still mindblowing...

Bump - you're all missing out!

I've had a look. Bit freaked out by no 9.

oooh, thanks for pointing this out. We had that book when I was little and I always wanted to get it for dcs. Will order myself copy.

Wow - these are amazing! Quite liked pic 9 as that's the stage I'm at at the moment in pregnancy.

Been looking at them with 7y DD who was fascinated.

Beautiful pictures.

I'm going to show them to 3 year old dd. Shes fascinated with the whole pregnancy and birth thing at the mo.

'But how did I get out Mummy??'

I have resisted the temptation to shout:

'F**king slowly and painfully' at her...

Wow amazing pics
thanks for the link

wow, that picture of the 36week baby made me feel so claustrophobic!

how do they take these???

Fascinating but at the same time

Not a squeamish person normally but yeuch @ the early stages, especially the wormy looking sperm and the crusty looking egg.

It made me feel exactly the same, newbump. I felt strangely panicky looking at number 10. Panicky and claustrophobic. I'm sure it's a wonderful place for a foetus, but it looks terrifying!

Fab pictures though.

My mum bought me that book when I was pregnant with DD1. It's absolutely incredible with some beautiful pictures.
