Just sitting here wondering cos I've forgotten - when is a baby considered term e.g won't be classed as prem??? Seem to remember its 36/37 weeks??

Anything from 37 weeks is considered 'term'

Yep, 37 - 42 weeks is fine.

Anything after 35 weeks though is normally fine healthwise though temperature control etc may need some help.

my ds was born 37 weeks and they called him full term
