Boo is now nearly 3 inches / 7 to 8 centimetres long from crown to rump and weighs nearly 23 grams -- about half a banana. Unique fingerprints are already in place and if you poke my stomach gently and it's felt by Boo, then he/she will start rooting -- that is, act as if she's searching for a nipple. If Boo is a girl, she now has approximately 2 million eggs in her ovaries; she will have only a million by the time she's born. She'll have fewer eggs as she gets older, and by age 17, the number will have dropped to 200,000.
