The baby is about the size of a green olive. This week the embryonic tail disappears. The hands and feet look a lot less like paddles and have more formed fingers and toes. Your baby’s head is still larger than the rest of the body and the eyes are fully developed, but are covered by the eyelids which are fused shut for the next 16 weeks or so. Inside your baby’s body the internal reproductive organs, testes or ovaries, are starting to form but will not be quite distinguishable until the next couple of weeks.
