WEEK 16

I am 16 weeks pregnant (24 weeks to go)! BabyBunny is about the size of an avocado, weighs nearly 100 grams, and around 11.5 cm long (head to rump). The top of the uterus is about halfway between the pubic bone and the navel. The round ligaments that support the uterus are thickening and stretching as the uterus grows.

BabyBunny's legs are much more developed, the head is more erect, the eyes have moved closer to the front of the head, and the ears are close to their final position. The heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood each day, and this amount will continue to increase as development progresses. BabyBunny's started growing toenails! /BabyCenter/
