This is a image from a 10 week dating/viability scan
Your baby is now around 30mm long from head to bottom, which is about the size of a small apricot.
The baby will be making jerky movements and baby's movement can be seen on a scan.
Your baby is going through another huge growth spurt. The head is still too big for the body, but the face is more recognisably in proportion. The eyes are half closed but can react to light.
The ears are starting to form, the mouth now has a delicate upper lip and the nose has 2 little nostrils. The jaw bone is shaping up too, and contains tiny versions of your baby's milk teeth.
The heart is beating extremely quickly at 180bpm – that's about 3 times your heart rate.
