Its counted as 40 weeks in entirity but since that counts from your last menstrual cycle (which is normally 2weeks before you even conceived and 2more weeks for implantation) it comes down to 9 months of pregnancy. Make sense? By time you have an embryo, there's 9 mths to go! If your counting from cytoplast or zygote then its 10/months!
