OB terminology. I am a student and our class is having a debate (awaiting clarification from instructor) as to what exactly para is. Specifically...if there is a primigravida who is due any day now (obviously beyond the 20 weeks) is she a para 1 yet or not until after she delivers? In other words, does para only indicate delivery or any pregnancy beyond 20 weeks? I would appreciate any help from you seasoned OB nurses.

Literature written during this same interval in other cultures might be referred to as Classical Hebrew or Classical Chinese literature as well. You can download a PDF handout listing all the major periods of literary history in Western culture here, to see where the classical period fits in. For the purposes of this website, we currently limit ourselves to Classical China, Classical Greece, Classical Rome, and the Bible as literature.
