Mom, I'm now the size of a large eggplant, and I'm beginning to open my eyes and blink.

This week, your baby can blink and even produce real tears, and their brain begins a growth spurt that will double its size by birth. Becoming more themselves every day.

28 weeks pregnant? Here’s your 28 week pregnancy guide to provide expert info & advice about your growing baby & the changes in your body, by week & by trimester

<ul>
	<li>Your baby-to-be&#39;s hair can be seen waving in the amniotic fluid.</li>
	<li>This hair is called lanugo.</li>
	<li>Unfortunately, we can&#39;t predict how much hair your baby will have because they will lose all lanugo before being born, and it will be replaced with the hair we&#39;re used to seeing on infants at birth.</li>
