Adjusted age
If a baby is born at 36 weeks, do they still have an adjusted age of a month behind? I know they say 38 weeks is full term for twins and that they develop a bit quicker (from the Barbara Luke book).
I have a friend who had her singleton DC at 36 weeks and she wasn't delayed at all and even walked pretty early.

Re: Adjusted age
All 3 of my boys were born at exactly 36 weeks. (Twins and a single.)
The ped used their adjusted age until around 6mo.
The twins were behind in speech a bit, but had no other delays. They walked super early.
The ped didn't mention anything about adjusted age at DS#3's 6mo check up a few weeks ago.
