15 Weeks Only 175 Days to go!


At week 15, baby-to-be stretches her limbs and bends at her elbows. She's getting big enough that I can feel many of these movements. This week baby is roughly the size of a small apple or orange. Her bones are continuing to grow and lengthen. While she looks more like a baby, her skin is still thin and translucent with her veins visible. Baby is also beginning to grow lanugo, a very fine hair. It will keep growing until around the 26th gestational week of pregnancy (that's week 28 of pregnancy).

How Big Is Baby?
This week baby is roughly the size of a small apple or orange. My weight gain for the month was 1 lb. Last month I gained 3 lbs.
