I always wonder the same thing. I think if you are in your 14th week you are 3.5 months.

That sounds right I guess.
12 weeks is 3 months right. SO 14 wks would be 3.5....

It's a little confusing, because there are 40 weeks of pregnancy, but 9 "months". Partly because most months are longer than 28 days, and also because the 40 weeks includes the first 2 weeks from your last menstrual period to conception. If you just divide by 4, it will be confusing because you will have a tenth month of pregnancy.

Usually what I do is say "I'm in my *** month", so you would be in your 3rd month. Or, I just say the number of weeks.

The first "month" is generally considered the first 6 weeks. So, if you are 14 it's considered just about 3 months.

Re: How many months??

40 wks = 4 wks per month = 10 months

In reality, you are PG for more than 9 months. It's almost 10 months (minus 1 week).

Re: How many months??

there are more than 4 weeks in most months - so I usually just add a bit.

I always think of 13 weeks as the end of the first trimester - so tht would be 3 months.

Sounds like we are on the same path... I am 14 weeks, 4 days today!

Hope everything is going well for you!!!
I consider myself 3 months... I keep reading that is I am 14 weeks, then the fetus is 12 weeks... which according to my math is 3 months!!!

Re: How many months??

I struggle with this as well.... if you go to I-am-pregnant.com and put in your due date, it tells you the month you are in, how many days until you deliver, etc.

It is a great tool that someone on this site recommended!!

I never bothered to do the math..if someone asked how far a long I was I just always answered in weeks. Or I tell them when Im due..
