Congratulations!
You are halfway through your pregnancy, 20 weeks marks the midpoint.
Your baby can hear and recognize the mother's voice. The growth of hair on the rest of the body has started and the skin is getting thicker. The heart can now be heard with a stethoscope. This is an important time for sensory development since nerve cells serving each of the senses; taste, smell, hearing, sight, and touch are now developing into their specialized area of the brain.
