Making contact! Your baby is now 32 cm and 560 grams.
At 24 weeks of pregnancy your baby is viable. That means everything is in place. The ears have almost reached their final shape and hear more and more: not only the rumbling of your bowels and the beating of your heart, but also your voices. Familiar sounds calm your baby, while loud music, a slamming door and loud voices can make your baby restless. Your baby is not really startled by the sounds themselves, but by your reaction to them. You can now also make contact with your baby by placing your hand on your belly. Your little one often responds to the warmth and pressure of your hand by kicking against it!
