How Many Months??

Nicola, 33 from Manchester asks...
I would like to know, if I am 25 weeks pregnant, how many months is that. It can be really confusing, I would say that I am 6 months pregnant. Is this right and when would you say you were 7 months.

Stacy Says...
Um, this is just basic math. Since there are 4 weeks in 1 month. 25 weeks divided by 4 would equal 6 months and 1 week. You would be 7 months at 28 weeks. I hope that helps.

Comments:
Just say you are 6 months preggo until you hit 28 weeks, then you will be 7 months preg until you are 32 weeks, when you will be 8 months...get it?
 
Then pregnancy would last ten months (40 weeks divided by 4). Pregnancy is nine months. A month isn't 4 weeks, it's 4 1/2 weeks. If you want to figure out how many months you are, you need a calendar. Let's say your last period was March 12. Then you're one month pregnant on April 12, two months on May 12, three months on June 12, etc. If you do it the right way, you avoid the embarassment of having to tell people you're ten months pregnant at the end.
