Is the pregnancy 9 or 10 months?

For a long time, everyone has been saying that pregnancy lasts for ten months, but many pregnant women still have doubts after giving birth. Their baby takes about nine months from the beginning of pregnancy to delivery, so why is it a ten-month pregnancy? Is it ten months or nine months? In order to solve everyone’s doubts, the editor below will give you a detailed explanation.

For pregnancy, generally speaking, medically speaking, it is not counted by months. We generally count by weeks. Generally, a normal pregnancy is around 37 to 42 weeks.

The calculation of pregnancy time is based on the first day of the expected date of delivery, which is generally a total of 280 days, about 40 weeks. The fetus is about 51 cm long and weighs about 3000 to 3500 grams. His body organs have basically grown and developed, and the lungs are the most complete organ in the human body. And the weight of pregnant women will reach its peak. Irregular abdominal pain, edema, varicose veins and other symptoms may occur, especially before delivery.

When it comes to the tenth month, pregnant women will feel very anxious, irritable, anxious, etc. in this last month. At the same time, the body will feel heavier in these weeks. They should be careful in activities, avoid standing for a long time, and avoid falling when taking a bath. In short, get enough rest, pay close attention to the changes in your body, and make preparations for delivery at any time.

Most pregnant women will be born within half a month before or after their due date, which is normal. Approximately one week before delivery, uterine contractions will be more frequent than the previous week, but these are just normal uterine contractions and not labor contractions. Only when normal uterine contractions occur for a whole day or a whole night will they turn into labor contractions. The uterus secretions are excessive, and the cervix of some expectant mothers will open prematurely. At this time, the position of the fetus in the mother's belly continues to descend, the lower abdomen is swollen, and the frequency of irregular uterine contractions increases.

After the editor's introduction, I believe that all pregnant mothers already have a certain understanding. Generally speaking, if a pregnant woman is pregnant for 9 months or more, and the fetus is healthy and basically developed after examination, early birth will not have a big impact. Therefore, pregnant mothers do not need to worry too much. It is very important to maintain a happy mood during pregnancy, which can better ensure the happy growth of the fetus.
