Your baby is approximately 20 inches long and weighs 6.5-7.0 pounds. Believe it or not, your baby has taken a bowel movement. The waste is called meconium and is stored in the intestines. He continues to  practice breathing and urinating, and has developed a firm grasp that he will use to grab tightly onto your fingers.
