A typical pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks from the first day of the woman's last menstrual period (LMP) to the birth of the baby. This is roughly 9 months.
Breakdown:
- Full-term pregnancy: 37 to 42 weeks
- Preterm: Before 37 weeks
- Post-term: After 42 weeks
If you want, I can provide more details about the stages of pregnancy or how weeks are counted!
