Counting weeks of pregnancy From: Kristi (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 8 May 1997 10:15:23 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: Counting weeks of pregnancy" Previous message: Phyllis: "Re: Periods after Pill" Next in thread: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: Counting weeks of pregnancy" Maybe reply: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: Counting weeks of pregnancy" Reply: Kelly: "Re: Counting weeks of pregnancy" Reply: Harvey S. Marchbein, M.D.: "Re: Counting weeks of pregnancy" Why are the approximately 40 weeks of pregnancy counted starting from the day of the last normal menstrual period, rather than the date of conception which would be about 38 weeks? I've noticed a high correlation with the fundal height in cm with the week of pregnancy, but didn't really know if their was a relationship or was just a coincidence. Also, why are pregnant women advised to lie & sleep on their left side? Is it because the uterine artery is on the right? Just curious...I always seem to have a zillion questions.
