Right now, your baby is busy rehearsing for his big meeting, simulating breathing by inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid, sucking on his or her thumb, blinking and pivoting from side to side.Your baby’s head will at birth, be the same size circumference as his or her hips, abdomen and shoulders. Baby is running out of room in the uterus, so he or she mostly stretches and wiggles, instead kicking.
