Count back from your due date. Keep it simple

Its all confusing all I know is in wish I where a dog right now.. They're only pregnant for 65 days!! Lol

[Tanjat]

On average a month is 4.4 weeks.  A pregnancy technically lasts 9 months and 1 week.  This is all too confusing and it is just easier to think of it as 10 months ;)

When you start your 32nf week you are at the beginning of your 8 the month you are a full 8 months pregnant at tbs end of your 35th week and the. When you start your 36 week you are at the beginning of your 9th month you technically carry 9 full months but 40 weeks would be the start of your 10 the month

[laurah87belfast]

Pregnancy math adds up if you follow it correctly - pregnancy is always lunar months (4week=1mth)

So your 32weeks ÷ 4= 8mths

36= 9mths
40= 10mths// edd

Just go with it and not think about it too much. It will make your head hurt. The pregnancy math does not add up...

It's because a month is 4 weeks plus a few days. So it's more like 9 1/2 calendar months. Using every 4 weeks as 1 month is using lunar months. Doesn't matter either way since you're still pregnant the same amount of time.

I hope that made sense pmsl  x

[AAVs_mommy]

4weeks an 2days is a month in pregnancy land. So yes we carry for 10 months. :)

[clairebear3381]

It's also because each month has different amount of days init so makes the months add upto  ten ,yet in theory when you work out 365 days, 52weeks in a year your pregnant for 40weeks (280 days)- take away 12weeks (3months )(85days) leaves 9months  

[DMBJEM]

With pregnancy they judge a month by simply 4 weeks, not quite the same "calendar" that we are all used to.  

[MischaA]

Full term and due date are two different things...I'm 8 months well 48 days left.all kind of confusing. Lol This helped me:  http://www.baby2see.com/pregnancylength.html

[laurah87belfast]

Oh ok. Is it because u dont know the first mnth??? X

[AmandaPanda85]

Lol no I realized the same thing when I first found out I was pregnant and was doing calculations of weeks and such. It's more like 10 months not 9.
