I know full term is considered 40 weeks. However, in the past I always had my doctor say 37 is considered "full term" that you should aim at making it to that point. What is everyone else's take on this?
Yes it is technically ☺️ my sister in law just had baby at end of 37 weeks at home and baby and her are perfectly healthy. Baby is just super tiny hehe
@jenidoll, I do agree. I was just curious if the baby needed to come was it considered term at 37 weeks or no?
I believe in leaving baby in as long as possible as long as it's healthy for both of you. From what I've read the healthier the pregnancy the longer your pregnancy will go. So in that sense it's a good thing and a good sign to let baby come when baby is ready.
@bellasmommy516, I understand. I'm not scheduled to have my C-section until 39 weeks I was just curious.
yes but it doesn't hurt to let the baby stay in longer to let their lungs mature and gain some weight to help with temperature control
Yes it is really 36 is the actual safe zone everything else is fat the baby is packing on @kaydensmommy5
yes that's pretty much right. the last few weeks is mostly fat and weight gain for a baby
