:: ear of corn ::
{ 8.5 inches long }
- 1.5 lbs. -
Baby brother is gaining steadily at a rate of six ounces per week. Much of that weight comes from accumulating baby fat, as well as from growing organs, bones, and muscle. Those little ears of his are getting sharper and can hear very loud sounds.
His fabulous little face is almost fully formed, complete with eyelashes, eyebrows, and hair. His little locks right now are white since there's no pigment yet.
His nostrils are opening now for "practice breathing"; he'll go through the same motions of real breathing but inhale amniotic fluid instead of air.
