Your baby is now roughly the size of an orange ๐
The sense of hearing has developed further. Your baby now responds to loud sounds: sudden noise can even startle it โ you may feel these vigorous movements as a gentle fluttering in your belly (if not, this isnโt unusual โ it can take up to the 20th week of pregnancy or even longer before you notice movements).
You can now hear something from outside too: babyโs heartbeat is perceptible with a stethoscope. ๐๐
