Which week of pregnancy is full term?

Question

Im 34 weeks now and getting a little anxious about delivery timing. Just want to understand from which week baby is considered fully ready. Pls share if u know.

My doctor explained full term is considered 39 to 40 weeks. Anything from 37 weeks is term but the baby is most ready around 39-40. Before 37 they call it preterm.

37 weeks onwards is termed full term medically but 39-40 is when baby is fully cooked so to say. Best to confirm your own dates with your gynac since it depends on your cycle too.

I delivered at 39 weeks and doc said that was perfect full term. They count 40 weeks from last period. Dont stress if baby comes a little before or after, both my friends went to 41.

Around 37 to 40 weeks is term, 39-40 being the ideal full term. Your gynac will tell your exact due date.

Haha with twins they dont even let u reach 40, mine came at 36 and doc was happy. For single baby full term is 39-40 weeks. Twins ka math alag hota hai.
