Abstract
The distribution of gestational age has changed noticeably over the past decade because of the gradual introduction of its assessment by ultrasonography.3 In 1980 around 42% of all live births occurred at 40 weeks' gestation; by 1992 this had fallen to 32%. Thus trends in birth weights adjusted for gestation may be misleading and are not considered here.
