Week 18: Baby's First Movements

size: Bell pepper

weight: 190 grams

You may feel your baby's movements, called "quickening." The baby is developing sleep-wake cycles and may be awakened by loud noises or movements.

Your uterus is about the size of a cantaloupe and is positioned halfway between your pubic bone and navel.

If you haven't already, you might want to start sleeping on your side. This improves blood flow to your baby.
