These polyps may follow a bout of ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease of the colon. Although the polyps themselves are not a significant threat, having ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease of the colon increases your overall risk of colon cancer.
This interactive Due Date Calculator will help you estimate the date your baby will arrive. Pregnancy usually lasts 280 days (40 weeks) from the first day of the woman's last menstrual period. This calculator is a general guide: every pregnancy is unique, and sometimes babies arrive sooner or later than expected. Always talk to your health care provider about your due date.
For example, in England only two per cent of premature births happen before 32 weeks, and about one per cent before 28 weeks (HES online 2012a). If you're healthy and your pregnancy is going well, you're likely to give birth when your baby is term (37 weeks to 42 weeks). Only about two per cent of women who are carrying one baby and have a healthy pregnancy go into labour early (Haas 2011).
