Definition

Noun: 1. A woman who is pregnant for the first time: In medical terminology, particularly obstetrics, this term classifies a woman based on her number of pregnancies. "Gravida I" specifically denotes a first-time pregnancy.

Usage

This term is used almost exclusively in formal medical contexts, such as patient charts, medical histories, and clinical discussions among healthcare professionals. It is a precise classification within the "gravida/para" system for summarizing a woman's obstetric history.

Examples
  • The patient is a gravida I at 32 weeks of gestation.
  • Her medical record lists her as gravida I, para 0 (meaning she has one pregnancy and has not yet delivered).
  • The study compared outcomes between gravida I women and those with previous pregnancies.
Advanced Usage
  • Gravida Status: The term is part of a standard obstetric shorthand. A woman's status is often written as "GxPy," where "G" stands for gravida (total pregnancies) and "P" for para (live births). Therefore, "G1P0" is equivalent to "gravida I, para 0."
  • Contextual Nuance: It refers to the , not the number of children. A "gravida I" could be pregnant with twins (a single pregnancy). If that pregnancy ends, and she becomes pregnant again, she would then be classified as "gravida II."
Variants and Related Words
  • Gravida (n): The base term for a pregnant woman. Often followed by a Roman numeral (I, II, III, etc.) to indicate the pregnancy number.
  • Primigravida (n): A direct synonym for "gravida I," meaning a woman in her first pregnancy.
  • Multigravida (n): A woman who has been pregnant two or more times.
  • Nulligravida (n): A woman who has never been pregnant.
Synonyms
  • Primigravida: (Medical) A woman experiencing her first pregnancy.
  • First-time mother (to-be): (Common language) A less technical way to describe the same condition, though it sometimes implies an expectation of carrying to term.
Notes
  • Register: This is a highly technical term. In everyday conversation, terms like "first-time mom" or "pregnant for the first time" are used instead.
  • Pronunciation: /ˈɡræv.ɪ.də aɪ/
Noun
  1. (obstetrics) a woman who is pregnant for the first time
