When conducting research for ASQ-3 and ASQ:SE-2, the authors used 39 weeks of gestation as a full-term pregnancy. However, some programs use 38 weeks or 40 weeks of gestation as a full-term pregnancy, which is also fine. When using ASQ-3 or ASQ:SE-2, you adjust for prematurity if a child is born 3 or more weeks prematu...

For easy age calculation, [use the online ASQ Calculator][1] or download the free ASQ Calculator app fro...
