What is happening with Peanut...
This is the beginning of the fetal period when Peanut's organs continue to grow and mature. The majority of his/her vital organs, kidneys, liver, brain, and lungs are functioning, but will continue to mature throughout the remainder of my pregnancy.
Peantu's head makes up half the length of the body, and there is a bulge in the forehead allowing for brain development. Fingernails, toenails, and hair will begin to become visible this week. The fingers are no longer webbed. Peanut is actively swallowing amniotic fluid and kicking his legs.
How big is Peanut...
Peanut is approximately 2 inches long, about the size of a lime, and weighs about a quarter of an ounce.
