Now conscious of sound from the outside world, which filter through the bones forming in his/her ear, to the developing brain.

Retinas are more sensitive to light and if Mommy lies out under the sun, he/she would percieve a red glow.

Other special talents: Yawning, hiccuping, swallowing, sucking, and making faces.
