This week, your baby weighs two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measures 14.8 inches from the top of her head to her heels. She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes. With her eyesight developing, she may be able to see the light that filters in through your womb. She's also developing billions of neurons in her brain and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.
From BabyCenter.com - I get a cute email each week. I love the way they compare the baby to a fruit or veg in terms of it's growth. Fun to guess. I think we have successfully guessed it once.

how exciting nat -- these next few weeks are going to fly by! Make sure you get plenty of rest because the first few weeks post-birth will be a bleary-eyed blur and you will most probably be kanckered xx
