自然早产
Spontaneous preterm birth is birth that doctors didn’t predict or know would happen. Our clinic mostly treats women who have spontaneous preterm births.
Most doctors define spontaneous preterm birth as any birth that happens more than three weeks before a baby’s expected due date.
早产儿有多重?
Some doctors use birth weight (how much a baby weighs at birth) to determine if a baby is premature. Any infant that weighs less than five-and-a-half pounds at birth (2500 grams) is considered to be a preemie.

医生如何预测宝宝的出生时间?
正常、健康的怀孕持续约40周. (Doctors call the amount of weeks a baby spends in the womb gestation). If you deliver or go into labor when your baby is less than 20 weeks old, 这叫做流产.
Each year, women around the world give birth to more than 15 million preemies. This happens when a woman delivers a baby that’s 20 through 36 weeks old.
It’s important for doctors to accurately assign a gestation age so they can determine if a baby is a preemie. 确定正确的妊娠年龄, doctors can ask questions about a woman’s period and calculate a due date based on when the beginning of her last menstrual period started.
在理想的情况下, ultrasounds and measurements of a growing fetus will confirm the same gestational age that your doctor has calculated based on your last period. But sometimes an early ultrasound will calculate a different gestational age than your last period due date.
If this happens, doctors generally consider your ultrasound due date more accurate.
