During 19 weeks, Your baby can be taking shorter and less sleeps during the day. It’s important to reminder that at this age, it’s not important when they attain their sleep, but that they are averaging about 11 - 14 hours of sleep each day. Your baby is developing stronger and sleeps less this week.


At 19 weeks, your baby doesn't mean everything by that sounds-he’s(she) purely setting consonants together with vowels. You can help him/her connect sounds with meanings by marking things: point to pictures in his/her books, touch his/her eyes, nose and mouth while naming them. 

The number and length of sleeps taken is not what is really important at this stage of your baby's life. What is new important is the total amount of sleep your baby is getting in a 24 hour period. Your baby should be getting approximately 14 hours of sleep at this point of life in a 24 hour period, but even that can vary. At 19 weeks old, your baby should be relatively active now, and influence even is a real handful at times. An average 19 week old baby weighs around 6 kilogram, and measure around 25 inches.
