How far along: 23w1d
Total weight gain: 15 pounds!
Size and growth of the baby: just over 1 lb. & more than 11 inches long [about the length of a large mango]
From my weekly email: Turn on the radio and sway to the music. With the sense of movement well developed by now, your baby can feel you dance. And now that [s]he's more than 11 inches long and weighs just over a pound, you may be able to see her squirm underneath your clothes. Blood vessels in the baby's lungs are developing to prepare for breathing, and the sounds that your baby's increasingly keen ears pick up are preparing for entry into the outside world. Loud noises that become familiar now — such as your dog barking or the roar of the vacuum cleaner — probably won't faze the baby when [s]he hears them outside the womb.
