Can i just say I can never figure out how many months i am?! I have the little chart but always feel weird saying "I'm in my 8th month" - but I can't say "8 months" until the 8th month is over, right?

@JoJoGirl: I am 9 weeks right now, which is the first week of month 3. So if someone who didn't care about weeks asked, I'd say 3 months!

@MrsTiz: I tried to do that but my mom kept arguing with me about it just yesterday I said "oh because i'm 33 weeks pregnant.. so almost 8 months" and she was like "nope." Okay then, mom!

22 weeks!!
@JoJoGirl: I've had this argument with my MIL too!! She does not understand the week count and keeps saying I have more months to go than I actually do. What the heck woman! I'm the pregnant one! LOL.

@.twist.: I've figured it's easier to start counting backwards. ie I have 7 weeks to go so really I'm just about 7.5 months. When I'm about a month out (by calendar date) I'll say 8 months.

19 weeks 3 days. But I will say 5 months since I am closer to that than 4. It is crazy! Only 4 months left!!!

@JoJoGirl: That's smart. Now, if only I were good at counting, let alone counting backwards! HA!

@JoJoGirl: I have a really hard time figuring it out in months too. I'm 23 weeks (1 more week until viability, right??) So, I think that makes me 5 months? It's also tricky because you aren't really pregnant for 9 months, it's like, 9 + to get to full term. I just say weeks and let people figure it out on their own.

@Foodnerd81: hmm.. I would have said you're five months, 3 weeks. At 24 weeks, you'll be 6 months. This is going by the 10 months gestational period (or 40 weeks).
So I'm 25 weeks and next week, I'll be 6 1/2 months.

@Anagram: @Foodnerd81: It's not 10 months though, cause most months don't have only 4 weeks, so dividing by 4 doesn't actually work. I use this:

So at 24 weeks you're actually 5.5 months along.

@JoJoGirl: @Anagram: Aha-- that makes sense. I am 5 and a half months along then.
i think lately I've been rounding down to make it a little less scary to think about all we need to do before baby gets here!
