How many months does it take to give birth?

During the pregnancy process, as the abdomen gradually grows, the mother begins to think about the issue of childbirth. Now many new mothers do not know the appropriate number of days for pregnancy, and some people do not know their due date. Some people even rush to the hospital when they are about to give birth. In fact, we can understand your due date through examination. It is best to go to the hospital to prepare a few days before the due date.

In fact, if our pregnancy time is calculated in full months, it is about nine months and one week, and a full month is 30 or 31 days. The ten months of pregnancy that we often talked about before was based on four weeks in one month. It was said before that four weeks is a month, and our pregnancy lasted 40 weeks, so the due date was October. The actual pregnancy period is not 10 months. Generally, our entire pregnancy period is 280 days.

Medicine requires that the due date be calculated from the first day of the due date of pregnancy, but many people don't remember their due date of pregnancy, and it was difficult to estimate the due date when medical technology was not relatively developed. Nowadays, we can obtain the due date of a pregnant woman by performing ultrasound examination during pregnancy. The normal gestational age is 40 weeks, which is one week longer in September. However, due to many factors, delivery may not take place on the due date. Two weeks early or late is considered normal.

It is normal for pregnant women to give birth to a baby between 38 and 42 weeks of pregnancy, that is, 8 months and 2 weeks to 10 months is all within the normal range. If you give birth outside this range, you need to check whether your baby has any abnormalities. Generally, premature babies will have a greater impact on our fetuses. Many premature babies will have congenital developmental defects or cerebral palsy.

In any case, we ladies must go to the hospital in time to do prenatal check-ups, and have a rich and nutritious diet during pregnancy, so that our babies can be born full-term. Pregnant women who eat too much spicy food or irritating food irregularly, or who accidentally get sick may cause premature birth of the fetus. We must avoid this situation.
