Subject: What is considered term pregnancy?
I have a dictator that said, "The child was born at term. Mom was 24 weeks' gestation." I always thought term was somewhere around 36+ weeks. He went on to say the birth weight was 6 pounds 13 ounces. Just from experience, I would think a 24-week gestation infant would not weigh that much.
Anyone in OB care to comment?
