Your Baby is the Size of a Leek

Baby’s stretching and moving

It's a little crowded in your uterus, so he may not be kicking as much. Instead, your baby's probably stretching, rolling a bit, and wiggling — all of which you’ll be able to feel!

Practicing for birth

So what's keeping your little one busy while waiting it out until delivery day? Practice, practice, practice.

Right now, your tiny superstar is rehearsing for his big debut, simulating breathing by inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid, sucking his thumb, blinking, and pivoting from side to side. One day you feel his bottom on the left side, the next it's flipped around to the right!

Baby’s head is huge!

Here's an interesting fact: At birth, your baby's head — which, by the way, is still growing — will be roughly the same circumference as his chest.

And guess what's making a quite-literal impression these days on those shoulders and hips? Fat — causing little dimples in those cute elbows, knees, and shoulders, along with creases and folds in the neck and wrists.
