At a weight of 1 1/2 pounds and a length of about 8 1/2 inches, your baby has outgrown the fruit references and is now the size of a standard letter (but that would take a lot more than a standard stamp to mail). Baby's weekly weight gain is now about 6 ounces - not quite as much as you're putting on, but getting a lot closer. Much of that weight is coming from accumulating baby fat, as well as from growing organs, bones, and muscles. By now, your baby's tiny face is almost fully formed, and achingly adorable - complete with a full set of eyelashes and eyebrows and a good sprinkling of hair on that head. Is your baby a brunette, a blond, or a red head? Actually, right now, he or she is snow white, since there is no pigment in that air just yet.
