Movimientos Activos: Tu Bebé en la Decimoséptima Semana de Embarazo

By the 17th week of pregnancy, your baby has grown considerably and measures approximately 13-15 cm and weighs around 150 grams. The baby's movements are more active and you may begin to feel small taps and kicks. The internal organs are fully functioning and the baby's skeleton, which was previously made of cartilage, begins to harden and turn into bone. The baby also begins to form body fat, which will be essential for regulating temperature after birth. This is a fascinating period where the baby interacts more with her environment and continues to develop rapidly.
