6 Month Unborn BabyThe baby's oil and sweat glands are functioning.  A white filmy layer covers the baby and protects her delicate skin from surrounding amniotic fluid and from scratches as she twists and turns.  The waxy substance will be quickly absorbed into her skin soon after she is born.  She can now respond to sound.  Her lungs are fairly well developed and she would stand a good chance of survival if born at this thime.
