Conclusion

At 22 weeks, your baby is swallowing amniotic fluid, developing taste buds, and building white fat under their skin. You might notice changes too—like a popped-out belly button, extra vaginal discharge, mild swelling in your feet, or even thicker or thinner hair! Backaches are common, but a body pillow or heating pad can help. Keep up your calcium and iron intake to support your growing baby. Want to know more? Watch now and stay informed with Dr. Heal’s expert guidance! You got this, Supermom!
