20 Weeks, Half Way point

Update: She may react to loud sounds now. She can actually hear noises outside of the womb. Familiar voices, music, and sounds that baby becomes accustomed to during her development stages often are calming after birth. This is an important time for sensory development since nerve cells serving each of the senses; taste, smell, hearing, sight, and touch are now developing into their specialized area of the brain. She now weighes about 11 ounces and at roughly 7 inches long she is filling up more and more of the womb.
