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.
Human gestation is 38 - 42 weeks where 40 weeks is used as the average. 37 weeks is technically considered full term where if you went into labor early, doctors would not try to stop your labor as there are no health risks to baby.But 37 weeks is NOT the average for when most babies are born.In fact the average for first time moms is 41.5 weeks. posted 08/10/2010 by sugar&spiceX3.es | No Thank you!
