Vocal cords and sucking motions refine. Fingerprints begin. The placenta is usually more established as the pregnancy’s support system.
Average size estimates for week 13 are about 7.4 cm and 23 g — roughly lemon. Your ultrasound report and clinician’s dating override any website average.
What you might feel
Many people report clearer thinking and less nausea — not everyone. A small bump may appear depending on body and pregnancy number.
You are in the second trimester. Two pregnancies at the same week can feel completely different — treat these notes as orientation, not a checklist you must match.
What to track this week
