What are those rubber babies called that teachers or doctors have that....??


Question: OK, you know those little rubber babies they have that come in packs, and show the development as the baby gets bigger and such....what would those be called, and doe anyone know of a website or something where you could buy them?
Answers: These are called fetal models or fetal development models. The good ones may cost hundreds of dollars, such as these http://www.kappamedical.com/birth.htm (we use these in my classroom).

Project Young One offers a 11-12 week fetal model; they don't have a website but you can write to them at Project Young One, 5927 Quaker Hill Drive, Racine, WI 53406. We use the Project Young One baby at the womens health center where I volunteer. We give pregnancy tests and most women are actually 11-12 weeks pregnant when they see us; they want to know how big their baby is.
