It's official: Baby's showing brain activity! And his brain will keep on getting more complex. Baby's lungs are also going through some major developments these days, which (combined with the opening of previously plugged nostrils) means he's now able to practice inhaling and exhaling. The lack of air in your womb means every "breath" is filled with amniotic fluid, but hey -- it's progress. While his lungs are still immature, they would be capable of functioning - with a lot of medical help - if he were born now. He's sleeping and waking at regular intervals, opening and closing his eyes, and perhaps even sucking on his fingers.
