Last Stage of Development: Your Baby in the Twenty-Eighth Week of Pregnancy
In the twenty-eighth week of pregnancy, your baby has reached a considerable size and measures approximately 37-38 cm and weighs around 1 kg to 1.2 kg. Your baby's movements are more coordinated, and you'll likely feel strong, regular kicks and stretches. The lungs are in the final phase of development and the baby practices rhythmic breathing movements. The brain continues to develop rapidly and the baby begins to open and close his eyes. The skin continues to thicken and develop more protective layers, preparing for birth. This is a crucial period where the baby continues to grow and prepare for life outside the womb.
