Pregnancy Week 22


If you have been observing the baby's development closely over the last few weeks you will have noticed the changes the child undergone over time. The baby goes through high paced changes in the second trimester of pregnancy. The child is about one pound in weight and 11 inches long. The baby's eyelids and eyebrows are now fully formed. The lanugo mask that has been covering baby is now visible.
The Expected Changes Moms Will Face During Week 22

Pregnancy moves another stage forward with your weight steadily increasing over time. By now the heeled shoes are a strict no for all you expecting mothers. Regarding the physical changes to expect, the uterus would be about an inch above your navel. For mothers expecting multiple babies, leg cramps resulting from a shortage of calcium will be a regular phenomenon by now. Skin changes are also quite normal during this phase of pregnancy. Many also face a peculiar situation known as vascular spiders in which reddish areas appear all over the body due to increased estrogen levels. This issue along with other pregnancy appearance related problems like thicker, lustrous hair, faster growing fingernails, skin discolorations, pigmented circles around nipples, and swelling are all temporary and will fade away within a few weeks following delivery.
