Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus. Her eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)
Holy crap! A head of cabbage?! That's huge! She definitely feels that big, though. She's almost to my rib cage, and can reach to my sides and kick me hard enough to tickle, which is a strange feeling. This is one active little girl! i hope she will be a little less kicky and a little mor snuggly when she comes out!
