So I'm confused are you ladies pregnant for 9 or 10 months?

  • I think it really depends. A pregnancy is 40 weeks divide it by.4 weeks and you get 10 months, but what about the months that have 5 weeks? Lol. Does that make sense?
  • That's why I'm so confused. We have 2 months left so are we 7 or 8 months?
  • To be honest I'm not really sure, becuase it is a mystery question to me too. Lol. I never went by months, I would just tell everyone how many weeks I was. It's like my soon was 8 weeks on Tuesday, but he won't be 2 months until the 26th.
  • Its crazy. Im 32 weeks & im 8 months if that makes sense. They say 10 months because our due dates arent on the exact date that we hit 9 months but it is in that 9th month. Am I making any sense?
  • Its 40 weeks, which is 9 months, 1 week.
  • Cause you are preggo a full 9 months. 40 weeks begins the 10th month
  • You are pregnant for 10 months actual months. Lol
  • Me & hubby were just talking about this. I tried explaining but he still doesnt get it.
  • You are considered 2 weeks pregnant when you conceive. So really they baby starts growing when you conceive and grows for 38 weeks.
  • The 40 weeks starts on the first day of your last period. Sometime around/during the second week, baby is conceived. At about 4 weeks, you should be seeing a positive pregnancy test. When your doctor/midwife confirms the pregnancy, he/she will date your pregnancy based on the first day of your last period. :) I hope this helps.
