40 weeks- The average baby is 19 in. long and weighs nearly 7 pounds now. That is so amazing how a 7 or 8 pound baby can fit inside a woman. There is hardly no room in there for them to move around. That is amazing how they fit all wrapped up in there.
17 weeks- The baby is now 5 inches long and weighs 5 ounces. The skeleton is starting to harden from rubbery cartilage to bone. I think this is significant because at this time you get to have an ultrasound to find out the sex of your baby. Ultrasounds are awesome to see.
34 weeks- The baby weighs 43/4 pounds and is putting on layers of fat. The lungs are well developed which is amazing because it is not quite 9 months yet so if it is born here it will be ok.
30 weeks- The baby is now 3 pounds and 15 inches long. The baby opens ans closes it's eyes and can also follow light which I think is pretty significant.
25 weeks- The baby weighs a pound and a half. They have wrinkled skin that is starting to smooth out and the baby is putting on baby fat. I think this is significant because 6 months seems like a long time but the baby only weighs a pound and a half.
21 weeks- The babies eyebrows and eyelids are now in place. The baby is 10 inches long if stretched out. I think this is significant because at only 5 months they already have full eyebrows.
17 weeks- The baby is now 5 inches long and weighs 5 ounces. The skeleton is starting to harden from rubbery cartilage to bone. I think this is significant because at this time you get to have an ultrasound to find out the sex of your baby. Ultrasounds are awesome to see.13 weeks- the baby is 3 inches long and weighs nearly an ounce. There is tiny, unique, fingerprints in place now. I think this is significant because it really looks like a human being it is just so small.
8 weeks- the baby is the size of a kidney bean and is constantly moving. The baby has distinct and slightly webbed fingers. I think this is significant because the baby is moving all the time , but the mother cannot feel any movement because the baby is so small.
4 weeks- at this time the baby is an embryo consisting of two layers of cells from which all the organs and body parts develop. This is significant because it is so very little, but it is a human being which doesn't look like one at all.
