16 Weeks



.16 Weeks.

With a whopping weight of anywhere from 3 to 5 ounces and a length (crown to rump) of 5 to 6 inches,  about the size of a large Avocado, baby is growing up fast. Muscles are getting stronger (I might even start to feel movements). ( And I felt them 2 days ago! Right on track!!). Especially the back muscles are getting stronger, enabling the little one to straighten out even more. Baby is looking more and more adorable, with a face that has eyes (complete with eyebrows and eyelashes) and ears in the right spots. What's more those eyes are finally working!! Yes, it's true: Baby's eyes are making small side-to-side movements and can even perceive some light. The eyelids however are still sealed. Baby is also becoming more sensitive to touch. In fact, he or she will even squirm if I poke my belly!

We are just over 4 1/2 months! So excited!!
