The Halfway Point

The Halfway Point
Congratulations!
You've reached the halfway point of your pregnancy, a significant milestone.
In the twentieth week, we'll explore the remarkable growth and development your baby has achieved.
Fetal Size at the Halfway Mark
  • Length: At this stage, your baby measures about 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) from crown to rump.
  • Weight: Your baby weighs around 10.6 ounces (300 grams).
Organ Development
  • Heartbeat: Your baby's heart has been beating for weeks, but now you may be able to hear it during prenatal check-ups.
  • Lungs: Although not fully developed, your baby's lungs are making steady progress.
  • Digestive System: The digestive system is taking shape, preparing for the intake of milk or formula after birth.
Senses and Movements
  • Sensory Perception: Your baby's senses are becoming more refined, with the ability to hear sounds from the outside world.
  • Movements: By this point, you may feel your baby's movements, known as "quickening," as they become more coordinated.
Week 20 marks a significant milestone in your pregnancy journey—the halfway point.
Your baby's size and development are remarkable, and they are becoming more in tune with the world outside the womb.
