Fourth month- fetal development

You baby is coat with fine downy hair called “lanugo” and comes in about 6 inches in length and 6 to 7 ounces.
Fine hair, eyelashes and fingerprints are all complete.
Awake or sleep, the fetal baby moves 50 times or more each hour exploring her warm, wet compartment by touch.
She touches her hand to her face, places one hand to the other hand, clasp her feet, places her hand to the umbilical cord and sometimes walks around the womb by pushing off with her feet.
