I don’t seem to understand why my doctor keeps telling me that 37 weeks is full term and all the apps say that full term is 39 weeks
I’m a bit confused
At 37 you have entered early term and the risks from baby arriving have gone down. But going through to full term at 39-40 weeks is so important! Though most babies are ok at 37 wks many have some trouble breathing and the significance in brain/lung growth in the last two weeks is substantial!!!
