The unborn baby spends around 38 weeks in the uterus, but the average length of pregnancy, or gestation, is counted at 40 weeks. Pregnancy is counted from the first day of the womanâs last period, not the date of conception which generally occurs two weeks later.
Your baby's development at 37-40 weeks of pregnancy. At 37 weeks, your pregnancy is considered full-term. The average baby weighs around 3-4kg by now. Your baby's gut (digestive system) now contains meconium â the sticky green substance that'll form your baby's first poo after birth. It may include bits of the lanugo (fine hair) that covered your baby earlier in pregnancy.
