Parenting or child rearing is the process of promoting and supporting the physical, emotional, social, financial, and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood.

Parenting refers to the aspects of raising a child aside from the biological relationship.

Pregnancy, also known as gravidity or gestation, is the time during which one or more offspring develops inside a woman.

A multiple pregnancy involves more than one offspring, such as with twins.

Pregnancy can occur by sexual intercourse or assisted reproductive technology.

Childbirth typically occurs around 40 weeks from the last menstrual period (LMP).

This is just over nine lunar months, where each month is about 29½ days.

When measured from conception it is about 38 weeks.

An embryo is the developing offspring during the first eight weeks following conception, after which, the term fetus is used until birth.

Symptoms of early pregnancy may include missed periods, tender breasts, nausea and vomiting, hunger, and frequent urination.

Pregnancy may be confirmed with a pregnancy test.

Biologically, a child (plural: children) is a human being between the stages of birth and puberty.

The legal definition of child generally refers to a minor, otherwise known as a person younger than the age of majority.

Health is the level of functional and metabolic efficiency of a living organism.

In humans it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when facing physical, mental or social changes.

The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operational value, the ambiguity in developing cohesive health strategies, and because of the problem created by use of the word "complete".

Other definitions have been proposed, among which a recent definition that correlates health and personal satisfaction.

A home or domicile is a dwelling-place used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe.

It is often a house, apartment, or other building, or alternatively a mobile home, houseboat, yurt or any other portable shelter.

Homes typically provide areas and facilities for sleeping, preparing food, eating and hygiene.

Larger groups may live in a nursing home, children's home, convent or any similar institution.

A homestead also includes agricultural land and facilities for domesticated animals.

Where more secure dwellings are not available, people may live in the informal and sometimes illegal shacks found in slums and shanty towns.

More generally, "home" may be considered to be a geographic area, such as a town, village, suburb, city, or country.
