Your Baby is the Size of a Mango

Baby's skin and organs

Baby's skin is a bit saggy since it grows a lot faster than fat, but soon he’ll start to fit his frame as fat deposits fill things out.

By the time your baby is born, he will be pleasantly plump and filled out, from chubby cheeks to chubby toes.

And although at 23 weeks, your baby's organs and bones are visible through his skin, he'll become less transparent once those fat deposits settle in.

You may be able to hear your baby’s heartbeat through a stethoscope

You’ve probably heard your developing baby's heartbeat through a Doppler a number of times already, though you never get tired of hearing it. But by now, you or your doctor might also be able to hear it through a standard stethoscope (though sometimes, it can be tricky to find). What a heartthrob!

This Week's Highlights

Are you blushing?

Baby's skin is a bit saggy (but won't be for long as fat begins forming) and has a pinkish-red hue (this is true in all skin colors), thanks to the developing veins and arteries right underneath.
