Fetal development in pregnancy week 20



~length
10.5 in | 26.5 cm
~weight
10.5 oz | 300 g

This week you're carrying around 10.5 inches and 10.5 ounces of solid magical baby goodness!

Your fantastic fetus' fragile tiny bones continue to ossify and toughen while their itsy bitsy finger and toe pads (and unique finger prints) are finishing up.

Your little womb-dancer also has teeth buds sprouting beneath their gum line.

And finally! Your wee one's limbs have reached their relative proportions — no more bobble-head!

Their little pink lips are more defined, and might be helping out in a bit of prenatal thumb-sucking.

If you have a little boy: their tiny testes are descending, though they have not yet passed the abdominal wall.

And in a final anti-alien development: the first of their tiny eyelashes and eyebrows are now present.

Essentially, your little one really does looks like a miniature baby — and we do mean miniature - your little swimmer currently weighs a mere eighth of their birth weight.

Good work mama! You're bakin' a beautiful baby and you're already half-done!


ps: malam tadi saya berkesempatan menonton Halaqah di TV 9.tajuk Halaqah malam tadi Pengembaraan Janin. Subanallah, saya dapat saksikan video 4D kejadian manusia. Daripada sel telur menjadi seorang bayi yang comel. Macam tula kita semua, sayangnya pada ibu yang mengandungkan kita selama 9bulan. Bayi yang ada dalam kandungan saya pun macam tu gak.. tak sabar nak lihat kamu sayang. :)
