Early would be before 37 weeks. Late would be after 42 weeks and on time would be anytime between 37 and 42 weeks. Due dates are just an estimate and can be off by a couple of weeks so when someone says they were late by a few days or early by a few days, they are not really early or late.
It is pretty rare for a baby to be born on the guessed date a doctor gives you...although my 2nd child was.

My first was born 2 weeks early, my 2nd was 11 days early. My SIL had all 3 of her kids 3 weeks early. I think it has to do with the body of the mother and how fast her child develops and whether or not they got your due date right. A child is concidered full term 2 weeks before the due date. But can be delivered as much as 2 weeks after, by then most people get induced.

Both of my babies were born early. The first was a little over 3 weeks early, and the second was a month early. Both are healthy kids!

My son was 4 weeks early. 5lb 6 z..then he droped to 5lb 2 oz. I went in for a Dr. Visit @ 36 weeks when my blood pressure was HIGH! And of course I had protein in my urine...so you guessed it I had SEVERE PREEECLAMPSIA! My BP (blood pressure) was 166/111. They started me on an anti-sezure med. and told me I had to get the epidural b/c any pain was making my BP get even higher.
Luckily I didnt have a c-section! My Dr. induced me at 3:30pm and I had baby Naturally (WITH EPIDURAL) @ 1:01 am. After only 3 contractions!
It was my first pregnancy and it was rough! But i loved it.
First was the morning/afternoon/and night sickness that lasted 4 months...then when that was gone I got severe sciatic nerve pain for a month...so bad I was screaming out in pain if I moved 1/2 an inch. Then I got "carpel tunnel" of pregnancy and my hands were in so much pain, swollen and stiff. Then the Preeclampsia! I had visual problems for weeks after I had the baby..and even now I feel like my vision isnt perfect...even though my eye dr said it's still better then 20/20.! After I had the baby I had a anxiety attack in the hospital but im alright now!
He's now 5 months...going to be 6 months Christmas EVE and he's a big boy 18lbs 11oz last week @ the dr. And his development is perfect. I'm so lucky...It was a terrifying experience.
I would do it again in a heart beat!

One of my cousin's were 4 weeks late. Another cousin was 1 week late. Another cousin was 2 weeks early so it all depends on how well your baby is developing
