Week 27 · Second trimester
Week 27, gently.
Your baby is the size of
a cabbage
- 36.6 cm long
- 875 g
Your baby has regular sleep cycles — and their own dreams, probably.
“Dreams begin before memory does.”
What’s happening inside
The baby now has regular sleep-wake cycles. Brain activity during sleep resembles REM — which means, probably, early dreams.
How you might feel
The final week of the second trimester. Your uterus is now about the size of a volleyball.
