Week-by-Week Fetal Development Week 27 Bring out the champagne. This is an extremely special week as your baby opens his eyes for the very first time. Over the next seven days, the membranes that form the baby's eyelids will begin to part, allowing him to get a good look inside the womb. He will not be able to see you yet, because like you he does not have x-ray vision. Nor is he likely to develop it. His eyes have still not taken on their permanent colour as the eye colouring is not fully developed until a few months after the baby is born. In some cases the eyes take on the final colour within just a few hours of birth. But this is rare. This week your baby weighs about two pounds or 900g. and measures about one foot and two inches or 36cm. To add your views on this article or read others comments Click Here
