Week 15, Fruit of the week!

Your baby's crown-to-rump length is approximately 4 inches and she now weighs approximately 1.75 ounces (almost doubled since last week!). Your baby is the size a naval orange and you can easily tell that you are pregnant now! If you wear maternity clothes other people will be able to tell that you are pregnant also.
Your baby is growing at an amazing rate and looking more like a human every day. Because your baby's skin is so thin, you are able to see blood vessels through the skin.
If you have an ultrasound at this point, (we still have to wait a few weeks for this) you might be able to see your baby sucking its thumb. Even though the eyes continue to move to the front of the face, they are still widely separated. Your baby's ears look like normal ears and continue to develop externally. The bones that have already formed continue to get harder and retain calcium. The baby is very mobile and flexible at this point. She can bend her arms at the elbows and wrists and she can also make a fist with her hands. (She?)
