Your Pregnancy: Week 15

Your pēpi is the size of an apple.

At week 15, your baby measures around 10cm and weighs about 70 grams, much like the size of an apple. 

Their arms and legs are working and able to kick against the walls of your uterus. They are starting to grow eyelashes and eyebrows. The bones of their inner ears are hardening to help baby hear. If you like, you can start talking, singing, or reading to your baby – they can hear you!

As symptoms of tiredness, morning sickness and nausea subside, many pregnant people feel an increase in energy during the second trimester which can make for a great time to start preparing your home for the arrival of your pēpi.
