...an apple!
The baby is about 4 inches long, crown to rump, and weighs in at about 2 1/2 ounces.
The baby is busy moving amniotic fluid through the nose and upper respiratory tract, which helps the primitive air sacs in the lungs begin to develop. The legs are growing longer than the arms now, and the baby can move all of its joints and limbs. Although the eyelids are still fused shut, the baby can sense light. If you shine a flashlight at your tummy, for instance, he/she is likely to move away from the beam.
