Baby's Growth and Development at 28 Weeks Pregnant

During the 28th week of pregnancy, your baby wants to see what's going on in his environment.

  • His brain develops and expands.
  • Your baby may open his eyes in utero.
  • More fat accumulates under his skin.
  • He continues to take 20- to 30-minute naps with some routine.
