I weigh about 8½ oz, and I measure 6", head to bottom — about the length of a small zucchini. My arms and legs are in the right proportions to each other and the rest of my body now. My kidneys continue to make urine, and the hair on my scalp is sprouting. This is a crucial time for sensory development: My brain is designating specialized areas for smell, taste, hearing, vision, and touch. If I am a girl (and I'm still not telling!), then I have an astonishing 6 million eggs in my ovaries. They'll dwindle to fewer than two million by the time I'm born.
