How big is Caitlin?
Caitlin has grown to 8 ½ inches long and weighs 12 ounces. {NOTE: This is the average weight for this time from the American Pregnancy Association - but the doctor said Caitlin weighs in at 1 pound right now and is measuring 1 week ahead of schedule!}
What is happening with Caitlin?
Caitlin's eyelids have finished forming this week, and she is very busy moving around and swallowing amniotic fluid. As Caitlin swallows amniotic fluid, her digestive tract is continuing to mature. Caitlin is also receiving some of the caloric intake from the amniotic fluid. Caitlin's vagina has fully formed but will continue to develop until her birth.
