Thirty Weeks Pregnant

I'm a bit more than 15 1/2 inches long now, and I weigh almost 3 pounds. A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds me, but that volume will decrease as I get bigger and take up more room in Mummy's uterus. My eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after I'm born, I'll keep my eyes closed for a good part of the day. When I do open them, I'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means I can only make out objects a few inches from my face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)
