You
Get ready to rock those scales! For the next nine weeks or so, you'll put on around half of your total pregnancy weight. You may find your eyes are dry (ask you pharmacist for eye drops) and you may find trouble finding a comfortable position to sleep in (try turning on your side and wedging pillows under your bump).
Your Baby
At about 29cms and 500g, your baby's pretty much a mini version of how'll they'll look when its born.
Their skin is still a bit wrinkled as they've got lots of filling out to do over the next few weeks. In theory, the baby could survive if you went into labour now but their lungs are not yet mature enough for them to breathe on their own and would require special care.
