how do you calculate how many months you are?

Just curious... how do YOU calculate how many months along you are? I've been treating each month as 4.5 weeks (putting you at 3 months or the end of first tri after 13.5 weeks, and at 6 months or the end of second tri after 27 weeks and giving 9 full months of pregnancy). I think this makes sense because most months are longer than 28 days...

that said, I feel like most pregnant woman treat 4 weeks as one month. If I do that, I'll be "5 months" tomorrow (at 20 weeks) which is quite tempting. However, that means a 10 month pregnancy...

I know it's all semantics but just curious what most people do!
