Pregnancy is the happiest but also the most worrying process. During this process, pregnant mothers have to go through many changes. As the baby grows and develops slowly, the pregnant mother's belly will become bigger and bigger, and it will become more and more difficult. So many pregnant mothers must want to know what the fetus in their belly looks like at 24 weeks of pregnancy. The following editor will tell you in detail how the fetus develops at 24 weeks of pregnancy. This week the fetus is approximately 25-30 cm long and weighs 500-550 grams. The baby now begins to fill the entire space in the mother's womb. At this time, the baby's skin is thin and has many small wrinkles, and the body is covered with fine lanugo. Although your baby has gained a lot of weight, he still looks very thin, but his body is growing and will soon gain more fat. Your baby's skin is thin, wrinkled, and translucent, his brain is developing rapidly, and his taste buds may be functioning now, too. Inside his lungs were developing the branches of the respiratory tree and the lung cells responsible for secreting surfactant, a substance that helps the alveoli in the lungs expand more easily. Sweat glands are forming. The fetus may cough or burp, and when he burps you may feel a tapping motion. As the fetus develops its body, it also gradually becomes a conscious and responsive person. He already looks and behaves like a newborn baby. If your fetus is born at this time, it is possible that it will survive with the careful care of a doctor, but the chances of survival are small. With the development of medical science and technology, more and more premature fetuses will be able to survive in an environment outside the mother's womb. But we still need to try our best to avoid this situation through diet and exercise. After all, premature babies' innate conditions are not as good as those of full-term babies. At 24 weeks of pregnancy, the fetus basically fills the mother's uterus. The mother will feel very tired and heavy at this time. Don't worry too much, this is a normal phenomenon. If you find that you have more and more stretch marks on your belly during the 24th week of pregnancy, don't feel sad. This is a sign that the baby is growing slowly. Some pregnant mothers will feel dry eyes and fear of light during pregnancy. This is normal, don't worry. |
