The baby moves more and more. At the end of the fourth month, they measure from 10 to 12 centimeters and weigh approximately 220 grams.
In the fifth month, they suck their fingers and make a face. They open and close their eyes and move their hands and feet. In this month, the baby grows a lot, can reach 25 centimeters, and weighs up to 500 grams.
In the sixth month, the baby's senses of hearing, smell, touch, and taste begin to develop. The sense of sight will be the last of the five senses to develop. Baby already reacts to outside stimuli such as light and music and notices the mother’s physical noises, such as her heartbeat.
The baby reacts to other voices beyond the mother’s voice. Parents can pray and sing close to the baby. If they already have other children, it is good to encourage them to talk to the little sibling and stroke mom’s belly. This increases the family's connection with the baby.
