The due date is calculated on the assumptiuon that delivery will occur exactly 40 weeks from the first day of your last period. It is 5% accurate. Only 5 in every 100 babies arrive on their due date.
Anywhere between 37-42 weeks is considered a 'full term' pregnancy. Personally, my EDD was 01/10/09 and I had my wee one on the 30/09/09. Labour began on the 29th.
Was my first pregnancy :).
Because you don't normally know the exact date you conceived they go by the date of your last period and take the due date from that. My due date was several days earlier from the date I actually had my baby. Some babies come very close to the due date and some may be several days before or after it.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
