What is meant by full term?

"Full term" refers to the duration of a typical human pregnancy, which lasts about 40 weeks, or around nine months, from the first day of the last menstrual period to the birth of the baby. A full-term pregnancy is generally categorized as occurring between 39 and 40 weeks of gestation. Babies born during this time are considered fully developed and are less likely to face complications associated with premature birth.
