Conclusion

Welcome to Week 24 of pregnancy! Your baby’s lungs are developing, and their skin is becoming less transparent as fat layers form. Eyelashes, eyebrows, and hair are growing, though still without pigment. You may notice swelling in your feet, leg cramps, or backaches due to your expanding uterus. Stretch marks and a dark line on your belly may also appear. Stay hydrated, stretch often, and try Kegel exercises to prepare for delivery. Watch this video to learn key changes and self-care tips.
