Baby weighs about 1.3 lbs, is a foot long and is gaining around 30 ounces per week. This week though, she'll gain 6 ounces of muscle, tissue and bone mass.
She would be considered viable at this stage and has around a 36% chance of survival if born preterm.
Her ears and taste buds work better and may be able to make pissed off faces if she hears or tastes something she doesn't like.
Waking and sleeping schedule will become more regular although it may be too early to start counting kicks.
Creases have appeared on her hands and her fingerprints are formed. She didn't do it, I swear.
Eyelids are fully defined and her eyelashes are visible on a 3d ultrasound. She won't be able to wear mascara though for quite awhile.
She can now get the hiccups and stick out her tongue on purpose. :p
