23 weeks fetus picture

At 23 weeks of pregnancy, the baby's biparietal diameter will reach 5.6 cm, the femur length will be 4.0 cm, the baby's head circumference will be about 21.3 cm, and the fetal abdominal circumference will be about 18.5 cm. The fetus is about 30 cm long, 21 cm long from top to bottom, and weighs about 630 grams. At this time, all the internal organs of the fetus have developed, and fat has begun to accumulate, but because the amount is very small, the skin will appear wrinkled, and eyelashes and eyebrows will appear. The small bronchitis and bronchi have already developed, and breathing may occur after birth, but the survival rate is poor.

At 23 weeks, the baby weighs about 600g. All organs are basically grown and developed, fat begins to accumulate, the skin still has wrinkles, and eyebrows may appear. Now we can carry out four-dimensional ultrasound examination to eliminate the possibility of fetal underdevelopment. You need to pay attention to rest and observe the fetal movements. Because the baby is growing rapidly at this time, you should improve the mother's nutrition and diet, eat more meat, milk, fish, eggs, shrimp and other foods, and fruits and vegetables cannot be lacking. Usually, you need to get enough sleep and the environment should be comfortable and quiet, which will help the child's growth.

Fetal biparietal diameter, baby's head circumference, fetal femur length, fetal abdominal circumference, body length, weight, etc. are key indicators for assessing the physical growth and development of the fetus. At 23 weeks of pregnancy, the average biparietal diameter of the fetus was 56 mm, the average femoral length was 35 mm, the average head circumference was 187 mm, the average abdominal circumference was 159 mm, the body length of the fetus was about 28 cm, and the weight was about 520 grams.

At this time, the baby's body is becoming more and more balanced, bones and muscles are well developed, the baby's eyes have strong vision, and hearing is well developed. But the baby's skin is still red and wrinkled. The baby's lungs are in the development stage, but it will take some time for them to fully grow.
