The pregnancy process of a pregnant woman is very long. Generally speaking, the entire pregnancy cycle is 40 weeks, with 10 months of gestation in 40 weeks. This is also commonly known as having a baby in October. So, how many weeks of gestation is considered full-term?
After 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is considered full-term. After 37 weeks, the development of various organs in the fetus is relatively complete, and the fetal brain nerves are in a stage of rapid development. The fetus has the conditions to leave the mother's body. After 37 weeks, pregnant women are facing childbirth at any time. Therefore, after 37 weeks, pregnant women should be extra careful and make relevant preparations to avoid being caught off guard during childbirth.
After 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is best for pregnant women to have a check-up at break time. Don't forget or don't want to do the check-up. Do the check-up in a timely manner and communicate effectively with the doctor to understand their own physical condition and the condition of the fetus. At this time, it is necessary to determine the mode of delivery. If the pregnant woman's physical condition is good, she can do some appropriate exercise to help with childbirth, but pay attention to the intensity of exercise not being too intense.
If a pregnant woman gives birth within 28-37 weeks, it can be considered premature birth, while between 37 weeks and 42 weeks is full-term delivery, and beyond 42 weeks is an expired pregnancy. If the pregnant woman is born prematurely, as long as she strengthens the care of the baby, insists on breastfeeding and ingesting nutrients, the baby can also grow up healthily.
