Pregnancy for women has a long process, averaging about 280 days, or 40 weeks, and the baby will arrive. Pregnancy is very difficult, even if the baby is born and the pregnant woman has survived, she can breathe a sigh of relief. The fetus usually gives birth at full term, and some may give birth at 37 weeks of gestation. So, is 37 weeks of pregnancy considered full-term?
Women with normal menstrual patterns play a crucial role in nurturing new life. If a woman has a normal menstrual cycle, pregnancy at 37 weeks is considered full-term. If women encounter some factors that are not conducive to fetal growth during pregnancy, they can choose to have a cesarean section to deliver the fetus, which is full-term and will not affect the fetus.
Women during pregnancy are generally divided into three stages: early, middle, and late. The early stage is 0 to 12 weeks, the middle stage is 13 to 28 weeks, and the late stage is 29 to 40 weeks, generally not exceeding 42 weeks. Generally, when the menstrual cycle is normal and less than 37 weeks, the fetus is born prematurely. Premature infants have not yet fully developed and are not conducive to growth, so they need to be given special attention after birth.
Many women nowadays have abnormal menstrual cycles, which may not affect pregnancy, but after pregnancy, it can affect the calculation of gestational age. Women who frequently experience prolonged menstrual cycles, at 37 weeks of pregnancy, will be less than one month pregnant, and at this time, they will give birth to premature infants.
