Everything Hello Belly has for week 41 — how your baby is developing, what your body is doing, and the small things that are easier to know in advance.

Now you can predict what your baby looks like much better than your doctor with ultrasound machine: baby has completely designed his individual features, similar to his father and mother. Moreover, now it is even difficult to say exactly how much he weighs because at this time the normal rate for all children is individual. The skin is smooth and opaque, beautiful brows and cilia are in their places. By the way, he admires the world around with gray-blue eyes: the pigment will come later.
