Lots of growing going on: You say toe-may-toe.
By the 18th week, your baby is about 14 cm long, or about the length of a large tomato.
Baby’s number 1 priority this week is growing. You might even feel her start to move, which can feel like flutters, known as quickening. At your next doctor’s appointment, let him or her know about any fetal movement.

Your baby’s skeleton continues to ossify (harden) – beginning with her leg bones and inner ear bones.
By now, your baby can hear. She might hear your heartbeat or your tummy gurgle. She might even hear loud sounds coming from outside the womb.
