Development and Movement: Your Baby in the Twenty-Third Week of Pregnancy
By the twenty-third week of pregnancy, your baby has reached a considerable size, measuring approximately 30 cm and weighing around 500-550 grams. Your baby's movements are stronger and more defined, and you may feel regular kicks. Senses, such as sight and hearing, are well 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 an exciting period where the baby continues to grow and prepare for life outside the womb.
