Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A baby born during the 32nd week of pregnancy is considered preterm, meaning that it was born before completing the full 37-42 weeks of gestation that is considered normal or average. Premature and preterm are often used interchangeably in medical literature. The terms "normal" or "average" would not be accurate descriptors for a baby born at 32 weeks.
