What Term Means Now. For years, babies were considered term (what we often call full-term) between 37 and 41 weeks of pregnancy. Most physicians believed that major organ development was complete by 37 weeks and that babies simply packed on pounds during the last stretch of pregnancy. The latest research, however, has proved them wrong.
The average human pregnancy is 40 weeks long. However, a pregnancy is considered full term between week 37 of pregnancy and week 42 of pregnancy. Babies born during week 36 of pregnancy or earlier are considered preterm or premature. Babies born during week 43 of pregnancy or after are consider post-term or post-date.
