The correct answer is option B.20 weeks.

Explanation:

At this stage the baby's facial features begin to take shape, and the baby begins to develop a sleep-wake cycle. Another feature is that it will probably start sucking its finger.

It is possible that the mother already begins to feel slight movements from her baby in week 20, which should be weighing between 9 and 11 ounces of pounds.

For this week, the baby's skin is covered with an amniotic fluid and a waxy covering that is called vernix.

This vernix is associated with the lanugo, which helps it maintain and is a type of fine and soft hair.
