so I'm 35 weeks pregnant, my doctor said that at 36 weeks I'm considered full term...so what is it...37 or 36...? I guess every doc is different.

He means you're at full term and the baby is ready to come out and be healthy at any time. The baby won't be considered preemie. If there was possible talk of being induced or you just might naturally go into labor, it means it could be anytime between now and 42 weeks. You're at the 36 week of pregnancy but the baby may be measuring big enough to come out anytime. My doctor said this is very normal. Good Luck!!

Full term - 37 to 42 weeks gestational age

Anything past a full 37 weeks is considered full term.

37-42 weeks is considered full term. Not 36...your doc must have his or her own 'theory' on it.

I've always heard it was 37, but I guess everyone has a different opinion of it.
