You are 23 weeks pregnant. (fetal age 21 weeks)

  • He or she measures over 28cm and weighs up to 550 grams.
  • The baby is over 11 inches tall, weighs about a pound.
  • The eyebrows are visible.
  • The child can successfully suck.
  • Bones located in the middle ear harden.

Your baby does a regular 'workout' inside your womb. He or she turns from side to side and head over heels. Thanks to a fully developed inner ear, which controls balance, your baby may have a sense of whether he or she is upside-down or right side up in the womb.

Skin pigment is now forming. The fetus is now proportioned like a newborn except it is a thinner version of a newborn baby since its baby fat has not developed much yet.

The pancreas, essential in the production of hormones, is developing steadily. Baby has begun producing insulin, important for the breakdown of sugars.

If born now, your baby would have a 20% chance of survival, the odds going up with each passing day. By this week, your baby weighs a little over 1 pound (500g). Its crown to heel length is 11 inches (28cm).

At 25 weeks the baby is completely formed, but his or her organs are not yet ready to function on their own.

The baby is around 13.5 inches / 34 cm in length and weighs 1 and half pounds / 690 grams.

The sexual organs are fully developed and easily seen on ultrasound.

Bones are becoming more solid and sturdy, hands are now fully developed.

The brain is growing rapidly, the brain cells are starting to mature.
