🥑 HOW BIG IS BABY?
17 WEEKS
about the size of an
AVOCADO
Your little one is growing, stretching and becoming stronger every day. 🤍 There's so much happening behind the scenes as baby continues to develop and prepare for life outside the womb.
✨ What’s happening this week?
• Baby's skeleton is continuing to harden, as cartilage gradually turns into bone
• Baby is practicing sucking and swallowing movements
• A layer of fat is beginning to develop to help regulate body temperature later on
• Baby's sense of hearing is developing as the ears continue to mature
• Tiny joints are moving, allowing baby to stretch, bend and wiggle
• Some mamas may begin to notice those first little flutters of movement around this stage
A tiny avocado today, with so much growing still to come. 🥑
