Babies are considered fully developed at 37 weeks before then they're still developing. Once they reach 37 weeks they are just gaining weight. My baby came at 38 weeks which was perfect she wasn't premature just early. I hope everyone who's pregnant has a healthy baby!
I wish people would stop ignoring the new pregnancy terms. 37 weeks is no longer term. Your doctor may consider it term if they're an older doctor but do your research you'll see they changed the pregnancy terms due to finding out that baby's lungs, brain, and liver aren't fully developed until 39-40 weeks (term). I'm not saying a completely health baby can't be born at 37 weeks, but just know that 37 weeks is not considered term anymore. 😒🙄 P.S. Don't comment with the bullshit! Move around now. #RantOver
can babies develop jaundice a week after birth?
My baby is a prune!! What fruit is your baby this week?!
Does your OB consider 37 weeks or 39 weeks full term? Just curious 🤷🏼 ♀ mine is 37 weeks
Full term pregnancies Are doctors really still telling people that 37-38 weeks is full term???? ACOG and SMFM both define full term as 39-40 weeks. 37-38 is term. 41-32 is late term. Babies born at 37+ weeks are almost always just fine but there are clearly researched benefits to going to 39-40.
