Female gorillas reach sexual maturity at approximately 10 years of age. It can have a baby as often as every four to five years. Like humans, female gorillas ovulate, every 28 days on average. The average female gorilla in the wild will give birth to two to six babies in her lifetime. Females eventually reach menopause, but the exact age that this happens is unknown.

The birthing process for gorillas is similar to that for humans. Gorillas give birth after being pregnant for 8 1/2 to 9 months. The labor process can go quickly drag out. Complications can happen during labor.

Gorillas tend to give birth at night. The most likely reason is that the gorilla group settles down for the night and things are quiet.

The female gorilla may change positions during birth, from lying down to squatting throughout the labor process. When the baby starts coming, the mother will sit in a squatting position so that she can catch the baby.
