According to BabyCenter.com:The most dramatic development this week: reflexes. BG's fingers will soon begin to open and close, her toes will curl, her eye muscles will clench, and her mouth will make sucking movements. In fact, if I were to prod my abdomen, BG will squirm in response, although I won't be able to feel it. Her intestines, which have grown so fast that they protrude into the umbilical cord, will start to move into her abdominal cavity about now, and her kidneys will begin excreting urine into her bladder.
Meanwhile, nerve cells are multiplying rapidly, and in Baby Gray's brain, synapses are forming furiously. Her face looks unquestionably human: Her eyes have moved from the sides to the front of her head, and her ears are right where they should be. From crown to rump, BG is just over 2 inches long (about the size of a lime) and weighs half an ounce.
