I have really plumped up. I weigh about 6.8 pounds and am over 19 1/2 inches long (like a leek). I have a firm grasp, which mommy and daddy will soon be able to test when they hold my hand for the first time! My organs have matured and are ready for life outside the womb.
Wondering what color my eyes will be? You may not be able to tell right away. If I'm born with brown eyes, they'll likely stay brown. If I'm born with steel gray or dark blue eyes, they may stay gray or blue or turn green, hazel, or brown by the time I'm 9 months old. That's because a child's irises (the colored part of the eye) may gain more pigment in the months after they're born, but they usually won't get "lighter" or more blue. (Green, hazel, and brown eyes have more pigment than gray or blue eyes.)
