Mommy, I'm like a pineapple (43.7cm, 1918 grams)

My immune system begins working independently, though I still receive important antibodies from your blood through the placenta. These antibodies will protect me for the first 6 months of life, before my own immune system fully matures. Lungs are almost fully mature structurally. Toenails finally grow to toe tips. Most lanugo disappears, remaining mainly on shoulders and back. My brain can control most body functions, preparing for independent life.

Remember mom, every child develops at their own pace and has their unique timeline. If you have any doubts about my development in your belly, consult with a doctor.
