Your baby’s limbs keep growing and finally her body is larger than her head. This, added to the fact that your baby is moving more often, may enable you to start feeling her movements during these weeks, although the fact that you start to feel them in later weeks doesn’t mean something is wrong.

The tiny bones in her ears that allow her to hear are already in place. There are several theories about just when it is that they start to hear sounds that come from the outside. It’s not known when exactly this happens, but when the internal structure of her ears has developed, this can happen at any time.

The eyes move freely now under the eyelids, which will soon open and her skin is still very thin, almost transparent, because there isn’t any fat stored yet underneath. On the other hand, your baby already has brows and the hair on her head is starting to grow.

Your baby measures now almost four inches or a bit over ten centimeters and weighs about 2.50 ounces or 70 grams.
