But it doesnt mean im 6 months does it?? I cant get my head round the differences but I know some of you lovely ladies actually have a brain that works and can tell me the answer

nope... fraid not....

basically there are 52 weeks in a year....divide that by 12 and you get 4.3333333333 continuous... times that number by 6 and you get 26 weeks...

So to be 6 months pg...you need to be 26 weeks.

i just go with dates of the month - so the amount of days/weeks varies cos not all months are the same...

so at the moment i'm 18 weeks and 3 days, but i'm also 4 months and 2 days...

Ok.. I just "might" have studied maths at uni.... But I don't know my times tables without a calculator... how does that work out

Thanks lol, 6months sounds too scary anyway

b*llocks! I thought I was 6 months and now I'm not!

 

[Squiglet]

Bleh... Just say you're almost 6 months... people only hear the 6 month bit anyways... But if you were 6 months at 24 weeks, that means you have a 10 month pregnancy and well that's just plain scary... I like the whole 9 month thing...

 

[pilkers]

good point Squiglet!! 9 months is definitely better!!

If ppl ask me months i tell them in weeks i.e. 20weeks which is 5months but you are pregnant for 10 months if you work it out in months now as your not pregnant for the 1st 3 weeks or so.
God its confusing and im an accountant.
