The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. Your baby's
fingers will soon begin to open and close, his toes will curl, his eye
muscles will clench, and his mouth will make sucking movements. In fact,
if you prod your abdomen, your baby will squirm in response, although
you won't be able to feel it. His intestines, which have grown so fast
that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into his
abdominal cavity about now, and his kidneys will begin excreting urine
into his bladder.
Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly,
and in your baby's brain, synapses are forming furiously. His face looks
unquestionably human: His eyes have moved from the sides to the front
of his head, and his ears are right where they should be. From crown to
rump, your baby-to-be is just over 2 inches long (
about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce.
