His mother carried him with hardship and gave birth to him with hardship, and his gestation and weaning [period] is thirty months.

This is the end of the list. سَنَة was only mentioned 7 times in the Quran. يَوَدُّ أَحَدُهُمْ لَوْ يُعَمَّرُ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ And you will surely find them the most greedy of people for life - [even] more than those who associate others with Allah. One of them wishes that he could be granted life a thousand years, but it would not remove him in the least from the [coming] punishment that he should be granted life. And Allah is Seeing of what they do. (Sahih International)
