26 weeks!

Jonathan now weighs almost 2 pounds and he can react to sounds outside his mother's body. His eyes can now respond to light and the permanent teeth buds are apparent in the gums. His eyelashes and eyebrows are well-formed and the hair on Jonathan's head is growing longer.

Lord Jesus, protect and save the unborn

24 weeks!

Jonathan now weighs about 1 1/2 pounds! He also inhales amniotic fluid in preparation for breathing. Jonathan's ear has developed enough that he can recognize his mother's voice, breathing and heart beat. About a week ago, Jonathan started having rapid eye movements. This is associated with dreaming. Some Babies born at Jonathan's stage of development are able to survive. :)

Lord Jesus, please protect Jonathan and all the other children in danger of abortion. Be with their parents and help them to see the beautiful child you have blessed them with.
