This is actually a pet peeve of mine...

In the beginning if I was 11 wks, 2 days I would say I just started my 11th week.

If you are 24 weeks, you are not 6 months. You are 6 months at the end of your 28th week. That is when you are starting your 7th month, therefore 6 months pregnant.

At 24 weeks, I would say I was starting my 6th month. Otherwise, if you kept going based on that, we would be pregnant for 10 months! Which is incorrect because you need to go through your first month before you are one month...



Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing...Like, by christmas I will be 16W5D...that would mean I am IN my 5th month...but I would feel funny telling people I am 5 months preggo when I will clearly NOT be. I will prob say I am a little over 4 months pregnant. Or 4 months plus one week...



Exactly!

I am 28 weeks, so I will tell people that I am in my 7th month.

I just say the week or almost the week. Like, "I'm 20 weeks" or if it was close I'd say, "almost 21 weeks"

I saw weeks and then they are like..REALLY how many MONTHS are you!..So then I had to start remembering what month I was in!

I think only preggo ppl understand the weeks thing..



TRUE! My BIL asked me how far along I am...I said 10 weeks. He said I said MONTHS but okay, I guess that's 2.5 months... Chat Icon Chat Icon
