To Sorceres: Listen up kid, insulting me isn't called for. FYI, as you can see not everyone agrees with your calculations, which are as good as my guess. have some respect for other people.

Ok so I see that everyone agrees its somewhere between 7 and 8. LOL which is funny because, pretty much no one has a clue hahaha. I guess I'll just wait around till the baby pops out and hope its at about 40 weeks.

you have about 12 weeks to go.

I would say 7 months, using months is pretty much rounding off.
The link I provided explains the confusing mathm better then I can :)

lol, the whole pregnancy thing is confusing and on another pregnancy board there was a huge debate about this. A lot of people will say a pregnancy is actually 10 months not true. This is how I broke it down so it would make sense, hope it helps :)

there are 12 months in 1 year = 52 weeks in 1 year
Normal full term pregnancy is 40 weeks
so
52 weeks - 40 weeks = 12 weeks
12 weeks = 3 months (4 weeks in 1 month)
so you have 3 months left over
12 month - 3 months = 9 months

This is just general, excluding leap years etc. That breakdown is very much simplified.
care providers don't use months because they are not clinically useful, there is no agreement on how long a month is, and the math is too complicated.

You are about 6-1/2 months. There are 52 weeks in a year, so if you divide that by 4, then you get 13. But we know there are only 12 months, not 13. That's because most months are 4-1/2 weeks. I looked at it like this, a trimester is 13 weeks, so the first 2 trimesters = 26 weeks. If you are 28 weeks, then I would say you are 6-1/2 months pregnant.

There are exactly 13 weeks in each average quarter (3 months) so assuming you are two quarters pregnant that would be 26 weeks. You however are 28 weeks which is two more, so my conclusion is that you are almost exactly 6-1/2 months pregnant right now. The reason why is that there are more than 4 weeks in the average month (except February). Some months have four weeks plus three days; therefore = 13 weeks every 3 months, not 12 weeks every 3 months. Regards and good luck with your baby.

You're at the tail end of your seventh month--32 weeks is a full 8 months pregnant; 36 weeks 9 months--but a full pregnancy last until the 40 th week if you go that far!

It is 24-27 weeks for your 6th month and
28-31 for your 7th month
32-35 your 8th month
36-39 your ninth month
then once you hit the 40 weekd full term you hit your 10th month.

Average pregnancy is 40 weeks so you actually are pregnant about 10 months in the end. You are getting ready to begin your eighth month.

So many people are saying you are eight months pregnant, but you have 12 weeks to go you can't fit 12 weeks into 2 months. If you have 12 weeks to go then you must be 7 mos. I am almost 19 weeks so that would make me almost 5 mos.
