Your baby says
I think of myself as a little more real now. Still hard to describe.
What may be happening this week
Overall growth and maturing may go through a more noticeable phase in these weeks. This process may not unfold the same way in every pregnancy.
A note for you
For the mother, the change may be a little more visible this week; there's no need to explain it to anyone. For the father or partner, a short supportive sentence can be this week's small gesture.
Let a simple close be enough. Let this week's feeling stay just the size it is.
Sizes are averages and every baby grows at their own pace. This page is general information, not medical advice.
