Pregnancy (latin graviditas) is the carrying of one or more offspring, known as a fetus or embryo, inside the uterus of a female. In a pregnancy, there can be multiple gestations, as in the case of twins or triplets. Human pregnancy is the most studied of all mammalian pregnancies. Obstetrics is the surgical field that studies and cares for high risk pregnancy. Midwifery is the non-surgical field that cares for pregnancy and pregnant women.

Childbirth usually occurs about 38 weeks after conception; i.e., approximately 40 weeks from the last normal menstrual period (LNMP) in humans. The World Health Organization defines normal term for delivery as between 37 weeks and 42 weeks. The calculation of this date involves the assumption of a regular 28-day period.

A. Before i was pregnant i was a size 10 Im now 33 weeks pregnant and pants are still a size 10 but they are maternity, so have a bit more give in them than normal clothes. Tops im now a size 12, sometimes a 14 - i find it uncomfortable to have anything too tight over my stomach now so looser fits are definitely favourable! I started to show slightly at around 14 weeks, then really popped at about 20 weeks. Earlier on, between about 18 and 30 weeks, i noticed my growth has been quite stalled, it wasn't a constant thing. I would seem to go a few weeks with no change and then seemed to expand overnight!!! Now at 33 weeks, the growth is rapid! If your not showing yet, don't fret to much. I freaked out a little bit at the beginning thinking… [cont.]

36 weeks pregnant, how will I tell the difference between going to the bathroom and my water breaking?
Q. I am 36 weeks pregnant and I am nervous that I will not know when my water breaks. I go to the bathroom, of course, all the time. How will I know if my water has broken.
Asked by Amanda Hudson - Wed Jan 30 09:55:44 2008 - - 19 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You will know! My water broke at 3:15 am and I thought I had peed the bed! I got up and went to the bathroom and afterwards it was still coming out! It is so exciting! Your contractions will probably start a little while later! I always thought I would not know when my contractions were starting, but trust me you will know! As I was going through labor I was thinking I could not mistake this for anything else! This is a very exciting time! Good luck and Congrats!
