Sweet 16.. Today Lil Fisher is 16 weeks !

Baby's Growth and Development at 16 Weeks Pregnant

• Your baby is about 4 to 5 inches long — about the length of a large pear.
• Your baby's skeletal and nervous systems connect enough to allow him to coordinate movement.

• When you're 16 weeks pregnant, developed facial muscles make it possible for your baby to squint, frown, or try other facial expressions.
• As back muscles strengthen, your baby is able to straighten his posture a little.
• Your baby now has eyelashes.
• By your 16th week of pregnancy, your baby's eyes move side-to-side and even perceive some light, although his eyelids are still sealed.
• Your baby's bones build and strengthen with the help of your body's calcium!
• Your baby already might be having tiny hiccups, although when you’re 16 weeks pregnant, your baby is not large enough for you to feel them yet!
