Ok, so I am due August first and I am currently 9 weeks, 5 days. Does this mean I am in my 10th week?
On Sun, Ill be 10 weeks, 1 day - does that mean Im in my 11th week? Its all so confusing..lol

Re: How far along am I really?

I've always gone with the week I am in.

Meaning yesterday I was 13w6d, so I would tell people I was 13weeks. Today I am 14w1 day and I go with I am 14w.

Don't know if that's right or wrong, but it makes sense to me. Chat Icon

I would say you are in your 13th week. When you are 39wk+days you are in your 39th week, not your 40th which would put you overdue.

I'm usually pretty specific. If I were you, today I'd say, "I'll be 10 wks on Friday, or 9 1/2 wks"

Re: How far along am I really?

Do you go by how far along you are or how far along the baby is..I am a late ovulater so i am different based on my LMP compared to how big the baby is..i have been going by the baby size for now

I just tell people I'm 19 weeks or 19 1/2 weeks, etc.

But, to answer your question, when you are 9 weeks, x days you are IN your 10th week. Think of it like a baby's age. They turn 1 after they complete their first year of life. So after their birthday, they are living in Year 2, but you said they're 1 years old.
