How big is your baby?
By the end of this week, your baby will be 4 ¾ inches long and weigh a whole 2 ounces.*
What is happening with your baby?
Your baby’s skin is very thin, and his/her blood vessels can actually be seen through the skin. Your baby’s ears are continuing to develop externally and continue to look more like normal ears. Your baby’s eyes are continuing to move towards the nose from the sides of his/her head. The baby’s bones are beginning to ossify, which means that if an x-ray was taken the skeleton would be visible. Babies at this age have also been caught sucking their thumbs on ultrasound pictures.*
I'm expecting any day to be able to feel the baby moving! I think I'll be floored when I realize it's the baby and nothing else. I can't wait! I really can't wait for everyone else to be able to feel the baby moving too.
