term pregnancy

Baby ready birth

Term pregnancy refers to a pregnancy that has reached full development, typically between 39 and 40 weeks of gestation.

In medical contexts, pregnancies are classified by how close to this window delivery occurs: early term (37–38 weeks), full term (39–40 weeks), late term (41 weeks), and post-term (42+ weeks).

The doctor confirmed it was a healthy term pregnancy.
