Hello, I wanted to ask if I can have my baby earlier? I'm 37 weeks pregnant and my due date is March 15.
Good morning! The best date of delivery for a child is after 37 weeks of pregnancy. However, please remember that the term of 38-40 weeks is more favorable for the child, as the toddler has more mature lungs and nervous system. Physiologically, it is the baby that signals the delivery and initiates a cascade of changes. Regards
