Child length: approximately 14 1/2 inches (about the size of an eggplant)
Child weight: 2 lbs
At this stage: Hearing is now near complete and the retina of the eyes have formed.
Your baby's eyes have completely formed and will open soon and he or she will begin to blink. Your baby's oil and sweat glands are also functional.
By now, your baby's lungs and brain are much more developed. In fact, your baby can likely detect light and dark through the optic nerve. Your baby can also hear more than just your rumbling tummy, such as outside noises like your partner's voice.
At this point, finding a comfortable position to sleep may be challenging. A full-size body pillow might help you get into a more comfortable position. As your baby grows in size, you do as well. This leads to back pain, headaches, leg cramps and pressure on your pelvis. Exercise and stretching can help to relieve some of the discomfort.
