24 Weeks Pregnant: Symptoms, Baby Size, and What to Expect This Week

💬 Feeling Bigger, Breathless, and a Bit Emotional? Welcome to 24 Weeks Pregnant!

You're officially six months in, and this week is a BIG milestone — viability week! That means your baby would now have a chance of survival if born early. 🙌 And while you're not planning on that, it's still a powerful reminder of how far you’ve come, mama.

In this week’s guide, we’re sharing evidence-based, week-by-week pregnancy tips that go beyond the generic info — because you deserve the full picture.

👶 Baby at 24 Weeks: What’s Going On Inside?

• Size: About 1.3 pounds and the length of an ear of corn 🌽

• What’s developing: Lungs are maturing, taste buds are forming, and your baby’s face is fully formed!

• Kicks are stronger now, and you may even notice a little routine — like baby being more active at night (because of course 😅).

🤰 Your Body at 24 Weeks: Real Symptoms, Real Talk

• Round Ligament Pain: That sharp, stretchy feeling in your lower belly? Totally normal as your uterus grows.

• Pregnancy Brain: You're not imagining it — hormones and sleep shifts do affect memory and focus.

• Leaky Breasts: Some mamas start producing colostrum (early milk) as early as now!

• Braxton Hicks: You may feel light contractions — your uterus is practicing for labor (wild, right?).

💡 What You Can Do This Week:

1. Start a light prenatal yoga or stretching routine to ease back pain and prep your body for birth.

2. Hydrate like it’s your job — your blood volume is increasing, and staying hydrated helps with energy, swelling, and even milk supply later.

3. Begin learning about breastfeeding — positioning, latching, milk supply — all the stuff you’ll wish you knew BEFORE baby arrives.
