Are gestational age and gestational age the same?

I believe most pregnant women are familiar with gestational age, because gestational age mainly refers to the duration of a pregnant woman's pregnancy. However, when talking about gestational age, most pregnant women think that gestational age and gestational age are the same thing. In fact, there is a big difference between gestational age and gestational age. The expected date of delivery of a pregnant woman can be effectively inferred by the gestational age and gestational age. The following article will explain to pregnant women the difference between gestational age and gestational age.

It is a parameter for determining the period of delivery. The entire gestational age of 280 days (= 40 weeks) is the pregnancy period, and 37 to 42 weeks is the delivery period. Deliveries during this period are considered full-term; deliveries less than 37 weeks are considered premature; and deliveries greater than 42 weeks are considered post-term. The most suitable gestational age for delivery is between 39 and 41 weeks. How much smaller is gestational age than gestational age?

Gestational age is two weeks less than gestational age? Another time concept corresponding to gestational age is gestational age. The pregnancy time (gestational age) and expected date of delivery that we usually refer to are both based on the first day of the last menstrual period as the starting time; and gestational age refers to the actual gestational age calculated from the moment of conception.

As we all know, the fetus is not born on the first day of the last menstrual period. The birth of the fetus starts from the time it becomes a fertilized egg, which means successful conception. Therefore, there is a time difference between gestational age and gestational age, which is usually 2 weeks or 14 days. The inference process is as follows:

The gestational age is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. In the first week of pregnancy, you are not actually pregnant yet and are in the menstrual period.

A mature egg may be released at 2 weeks of pregnancy, but you are not actually pregnant yet;

Ovulation and conception (intercourse) occur at 3 weeks of pregnancy, which is the official birth of the baby.

Your baby's actual gestational age will be about two weeks younger than your gestational age.
