National pro-life groups continue this week to follow the development of “Baby Chris” (see www.BabyChris.org), now 31 weeks old. This project enables people to learn about – and see – the development that every human being undergoes in these first nine months of life.

Developmental facts and striking images and video are provided each week, along with a prayer and social media tools.


Developmental Facts
The baby is now 31 weeks old, since fertilization, is 17 inches long and weighs 4 -1/2pounds.

The heart has beat nearly 44 million times!

The baby’s head is now the size of a pink grapefruit, and just the brain weighs a little less than half a pound.

Prayers

Prayer is the foundation of all we do in the pro-life movement.


Nearing Birth

Lord, you prepare us for every milestone in life,
You equip us for every change
And you strengthen us to begin every new chapter in our journey.

As we follow the development of human life in the womb,
Give us and all people
A deeper appreciation of the fact
That our entire life
From fertilization to death
Is a single journey,
And that we maintain our unique identity
At every stage.

Give us also a deep faith
That you, who have brought us out of nothing
Will indeed sustain our lives
Even beyond death
And grant us the promise of salvation
And everlasting joy
In Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
