A term pregnancy is 40 weeks. If your last period was in June, you should be due in march. The months people speak of in pregnancy are lunar months, which are actually about 5 weeks long. So although in layman's terms you are five months, in weeks, you have 20 more to go. Which would be 5 months, which would be March.

I am also 20 weeks my due date is march 20. Pregnancy is really 10 months because 40 weeks is ten months not nine.

the way doctors count is from the first day of your last period and not the month you missed it so according to medical terms you are not pregnant for 9 months but 10 1/2 months

I don't understand your question. What are you confused about?
Doctors count the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) as "day one" of your pregnancy. So they start counting a few weeks before you are even pregnant.
If you know the date of your last menstrual period, you can go on the following Web site to determine everything.

Normal pregnacy is 40 weeks. A good share of first babies are up to two weeks late.

My first pregnancy went 42 weeks but my second pregnancy (twins) only went 35 4/7weeks. It will depend on your pregnancy. Listen to your doctor...they usually know best.

The weeks are off. You can be 4weeks and be like a month and a half....it's crazy but don't let it bother you. That baby will come when it's ready.

Doctors are not really sure about due dates they can only make guesses which is normal. You can still menstrate while pregnant. You can call your doctors office for more questions and more deatiled answers.
