Week 14



Week 14: Shake it baby!
Fetal development in pregnancy week 14: fetus in fourth month Isn’t it glorious? At about 3.5 inches long, their little body and limber limbs are coordinated enough for loads of complicated motions. In fact, their whole body is moving right now! You're not feeling it because their current size is still a bit too small to make an impact you'd recognize. Still, their movements are recognizable on an ultrasound.
Your baby is also starting to develop the ability to move their eyes this week, although the eyelids still remain fused shut. What's more, they can make all sorts of fun facial expressions as they practice squinting, frowning, and grimacing.
Cute development of the week: their little hands can grasp at things and they may already be sucking their thumb!
