But it's not abnormal to carry past one's "due date." Actually, though it varies by ethnicity, the average gestation for a first time mother is 41 weeks and one day, and "term" is considered by the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists to be the range from 37 to 42 weeks. It's the rare mother who truly goes past term, though it does happen. Most babies come somewhere in that range, at the time that is right for them, when mothers are healthy and low-risk.

Brown Wed, 24 Aug 2011 12:41:58 +0000 http://mriceconsulting.com/tara/#comment-9 Good morning, I was referred to you by Amy Hass. I just heard through a friend about the bradley technique but since my due date is on October 21st, i guess it's too late for me to start her classes. Would you be able to give me a lil info. about when your brio classes start and where they are held? Thank you. Kyung Good morning, I was referred to you by Amy Hass.
