16th Week Pregnancy

At 4 1/2 inches long (head to bottom) and 3 1/2 ounces, your baby is about the size of an avocado.   In the next three weeks, she'll go through a tremendous growth spurt, doubling her weight and adding inches to her length. The patterning of her scalp has begun, though her hair isn't recognizable yet. Although closed, her eyes are moving (slowly), and she's even started growing toenails. Her fingernails and toenails will continue to grow, so don't be surprised if she needs them trimmed soon after birth.
