28 Weeks!

At about 2 pounds 4 ounces and 13.8 inches from head to toe, your baby has certainly come a long way!
This week marks an important milestone for your baby's brain development. Until now the surface of your baby's developing brain was smooth. During this week, her brain begins to form its characteristic grooves and indentations, allowing the brain’s surface to expand while it develops within your baby's tiny skull.
Other important developmental advances:
More fat. Your baby will continue to add layers of fat under her skin and will become plumper with each passing day.
More hair. Hair on your baby's head will continue to grow.
Lungs. Her lungs are now capable of breathing air.
