Continuing Development: Your Baby in the Twenty-Second Week of Pregnancy

In the twenty-second week of pregnancy, your baby continues to grow and develop rapidly. It measures approximately 28 cm and weighs around 430-450 grams. Your baby's movements are stronger and more defined, and you will likely feel regular kicks and movements. The baby's senses, such as sight and hearing, are more developed and the baby can react to light and sounds. The baby's skin is still thin and translucent, but it is beginning to thicken and develop more protective layers. This is a crucial period where the baby continues to prepare for life outside the womb.
