As it was the holiday weekend me and Df decided we would go to a few museums and do some shopping. Although i wasnt sure i agreed with it we went to an exhibition called Bodyworlds by Dr Gunther von Hagens. We saw it advertised when we were in NYC the other year but didnt get chance to go. Im really glad i went this time because it had a gallery of human life. It showed the development of a baby form 5 weeks onwards. You kind of forgot that they were all real as it was so interesting but it made it absolutely amazing to see.

I know not everyone will agree with the exhibition but it was so amazing seeing how the baby would develop throughout the 9 months. Df was in awe by it and said that he couldnt wait until we get pregnant as he could now see what the baby would look like.

I have never seen a human exhibit like that, I have seen both dog and horse though. They are really interesting to see.

My SIL saw it when it was here. I just can't look at that stuff though, it turns my stomach. I once got pressured into watching an autopsy and I had to leave once they started cutting...ugh!
