Your baby's should have exceeded 5 cm in length and 14 grams in weight. Her eyes and ears should be near the final positions in her head. Her intestines should have grown significantly, and will start to move into her abdominal cavity. She may have developed more reflexes by now, such as sucking, and squirming if you prod your abdomen, though you still won't be able to feel her movement for several weeks.
What’s Happening To My Body?
If you’re starting to glow (you’ll know when your family, friends and colleagues start telling you that your skin looks really nice and smooth) it’s because of the increase in blood volume and pregnancy hormone, hCG, in your body! The increased blood volume brings more blood into your blood vessels. The increase in hCG causes your oil glands to secrete, making your skin look redder and smoother!
And if you’ve developed pimples, it’s because of this increase in oil secretions. Don’t worry, it’s a normal bodily reaction and just means that you’re coming along nicely through the pregnancy!
