Video Description:Welcome to week 22 of pregnancy, where your baby officially hits the one-pound mark! In other news, your little one's sense of touch will develop at this point in his or her fetal development. Want more? Watch the video!Transcript: This week your fetus will begin to discover its sense of touch. Because your baby’s brain and nerve endings are almost fully formed, he or she will begin experimenting with this newfound sense! As such, an ultrasound may show your baby stroking his face, sucking her thumb, or feeling other body parts. And now that your fetus has officially hit the one pound, 11-inch mark, he’ll really start to look like a person this week. Of course, he’s still covered with that downy coating of lanugo, and he also sports deep wrinkles of skin on his body. But don’t worry: Before your fetus is ready to be born, he’ll shed that fur and will also fill in the wrinkles with oh-so-pinchable baby fat! In other developments, a baby girl’s vagina is almost fully formed now, while a boy’s testes will begin to descend this week. And deep within your baby’s belly, the pancreas continues to grow and get ready to produce vital hormones. Want to know more? Check back right here for your weekly fetal development update!
