It wont be something wrong with it because it's born after 42 weeks instead of 40. Might be bigger that's all. Most women go over the expected date.
it is bout 36 or so weeks Cynthia: It takes 40 weeks but most girls have their baby two weeks early or two weeks later than their due date.
A newborn baby is 40 weeks old. The gestation period in humans normally ranges between 37 and 42 weeks.
Well I went to 40 weeks exactly with my third baby and 42 weeks with my fourth. :)
Babies are made by sexual intercourse when a man puts his penis inside a woman's vagina. Babies are born generally around 36 to 42 weeks gestation. At the beginning of labour contractions become more frequent and stronger, as contractions happen the cervix dilates and at around 10cm the woman can begin to push. After pushing a baby is born.
if the baby is slow to develop or is still in the womb after 42 weeks
It is impossible to say as a term baby could be born from 37 weeks to 42 weeks of pregnancy. You need a due date from a period or an ultrasound to have an idea of conception date
Talk to your doctor. Normal term pregnancy is 37-42 weeks.
Thirty four weeks of pregnancy in a horse would produce an abortus not a viable foal.
Yes, the development takes 38 to 42 weeks - about 9 months.
yes they can go to 41 weeks and very rarely to 42 weeks but after 41 weeks there can be a danger to the baby as the placenta starts to stop working efficiently.
The ideal timeframe for a baby to be born centers around the 40-week mark that is determined by when the baby is conceived. Under normal circumstances, babies can usually be safely delivered between 36 and 42 weeks (i.e. up to four weeks before their due date, and up to two weeks after). Babies have been delivered much earlier and also much later and have still survived, but the baby's best chance of survival is if it is delivered within the 40-week window. If the pregnancy progresses up to the 42 week point without any signs of labor, then the mother's water will be broken and labor will be induced.
