This week the baby is approximately the size of a winter squash, at 2.54 lbs. in weight, and 15.2 inches in length.
"Whether you are carrying one baby or two babies, they will each weigh approximately the same, i.e. about two and a half pounds. His brain is now in charge of maintaining body temperature and also controls breathing. His irises can now respond to light by dilating and contracting. All the internal organs are maturing and preparing to function on their own at birth. You may even feel him cough. Your baby's skin is beginning to look less wrinkly and more like it will look at birth. The extra fat under the skin will help to regulate the body temperature at birth. His head is much more proportionate to the rest of the body. Your baby is bursting with energy at this point and you'll be feeling every bit of it."
In crappy news, I did not pass my second 1 hour glucose tolerance test, and now have to go take the 3 hour. :(
