I really appreciate the information and definitely will go by what you explained above considering it is what is being taught currently!!! 💙

@vanessa89breanne of course. It was super confusing to me at first when I saw all the posts but then I remembered that what I am teaching is different from what I learned my first years of college and asked the ob and she told me what I told you above. :) and yep, congratulations! 😀

Thank you @heilwife317!!!! I'm definitely going to ask my OB which one they go by at my next apt!! So tomorrow I guess I'll be 6 months! 💙

It's different for different ob offices. Some still go by the old way which would mean your 3rd trimester starts at 28 weeks....however, the newer break down that some have transitioned to (the one we teach in child and adolescent development now for about 3 years) says the 3rd trimester starts at 27 weeks. And the chart is like this image...my OB follows the new chart over the older one.

@aengs2 thank you!!!! And yes weeks are so less confusing!! Lol. I always wondered why most women would say weeks before I was pregnant, well now I know!!! Hahaha

@vanessa89breanne, The website is ссылка

@vanessa89breanne, Yes, its like birthdays. If I have an 18 month old, he's currently in his second year of life but he's not 2 years old until he actually reaches 24 months. So you can say he's 2 and a half years old. It makes sense if you think about it that way! So you can say you're about 5 and a half months pregnant. It's confusing for a lot of people so I always just tell people how many weeks I am.

@aengs2 what app or website were you able to get that calendar from??

@aengs2 so you're technically not so many months pregnant until you've fully completed that month? So like a month delay???

Every calendar seems to look different which is confusing. You're 5 months pregnant though because you've completed 5 months of pregnancy. You're currently working towards completing your 6th month.

This is confusing. I’m 25 weeks and I say I’m 6 months. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Its confusing to me too lol i go by months lol so i consider myself 6months and im 24weeks
