My doctor told me not to follow a 9 month calendar. I never realized I actually carried my son for 10 months. 40 weeks 5 days.. I would have never thought about this until she said it. She said a lot of people go based off 9 months when we carry longer.. She broke it down like this...
1-4 weeks = 1 month
5-8 weeks = 2 month
9-12 weeks = 3 month
13-16 weeks = 4 month
17-20 weeks = 5 month
21-24 weeks = 6 month
25-28 weeks = 7 month
29-32 weeks = 8 month
33-36 weeks = 9 month
37-40 weeks = 10 month
HAS ANYONE ELSE DOC SAID THIS?

My Doctor says 40 weeks which is 10 months technically but you technically are not pregnant on the first day of your last period which is how they estimate how many weeks you are. So knock two or three weeks off that and due date is about right for 9 months.

We go by 40 weeks but most doctors don't count the first month of pregnancy as you "aren't actually pregnant yet." so it just depends on the doctor. I never say 10 months though. I go by 9 months.

Thats pregnancy months. Where actual month are more than 4weeks. But usually they count by pregnancy months.

@drmurphy13, @mommyoftwo1 , @their.bomb.ass.mom , @maxs_mommy80 I'm going just go off what doc said she explained exactly what you guys said, idc about the months term lol.. 3, 6, 8, 9 month consist of 5 weeks while 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 consist of 4 weeks which is confusing so whatever suites her suites me.. in the end baby is coming out sooner or later..
