Weeks 27-30




Week 27 - Rutabaga 
  • She's practicing inhaling and exhaling with her rapidly developing lungs.
  • It's official: Baby's showing brain activity! And her brain will keep on getting more complex.
  • she is waking and sleeping in regular intervals, opening and closing her eyes and sucking on her fingers.







Week 28 - Eggplant
  • She's starting to develop more fat, so her wrinkly skin will start to get smoother.
  • Her lungs are mature enough that she'd probably survive if she was born now. Wow!
  • she is now blinking her eyes which now sport eyelashes.
  • her eyesight is developed and she can see the light that filters through your belly.




Week 29 - Acorn Squash
  • She's getting a little cramped in there, since she's growing so fast. But you probably already realize that, since you're getting all those jabs and kicks.
  • She's growing white fat deposits under her skin, and her energy is surging because of it.
  • Feel a subtle twitch? It might be baby hiccupping.
  • Muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is getting bigger to make room for her developing brain.



Week 30 - Cucumber 
  • Her skin is getting smoother.
  • But her brain is getting wrinklier -- to make way for all that essential brain tissue.
  • She's now strong enough to grasp a finger!
  • She is living in a pint and a half of amniotic fluid.
