Answer 1

Today [ it's tuesday now ] you are 27 weeks, and 6 days.
On wednesday, you will be 28 weeks.

Answer 2

I would go with the due date from your doctor's office. 27 weeks and 7 days is 28 weeks, not a hard thing to figure out just weird they would put it that way. I don't know about your throat and ears being itchy but I know I have a stuffed up nose all the time. I read it's because of the increased blood flow, things are more swollen, maybe that relates to what you have. Hope you feel better soon.

In some situations women can experience prodromal labor- where it starts and stops and then starts and stops again. This usually doesn't happen for more than a few days and then labor finally kicks in and you are in true labor. This can be very frustrating and annoying at times, but it's nice to know that true labor is just around the corner. My advice would be to rest and relax as much as possible. Take a nice leisurely walk through the park, read a book, watch a movie, or just take a nice long nap. Labor is also easier to get through if you are not tired or exhausted from trying everything in the book to get labor going. It'll come when it's supposed to come. Pretty soon that precious baby is going to be here and it'll be a while before you can do any of those things without interruptions. Good Luck.

Answer 4

I'm 26 weeks today, and those sites also say I am 25 weeks 7 days. Doing the math...that makes me exactly where I should be at 26 weeks. I have no idea why they number their weeks like that, but it's accurate. Try BabyCenter.com for the best pregnancy information!

Not sure what's up with the itchiness...maybe you're allergic to something? I haven't heard of itch being a 3rd trimester symptom except for the skin when it stretches. If you're still itchy in a week and can't find relief, make sure you mention it to your doctor.

Good luck! :)

Answer 5

some women just itch during pregnancy..ask your doctor about some safe anti-itch cream. There is nothing wrong you, just a hormonal shift:)

and that is the same as 28 weeks, fyi...there are only 7 days in a week:)

Answer 6

Don't you remember when your last period was?
Count from that.
The day your period was due, lets say 28th February 2007, you didn't get it that day, so this day you were 4 weeks pregnant. Whatever day of the week that was is the day you change over to the next week pregnant.

Answer 7

Try making a ticker at http://tickers.baby-gaga.com/pregnancy.php, you are 27 weeks and 6 days pregnant. SO yes your weeks change every Wednesday/.



I am due on Thursday the 25th of october, and yes my weeks change every Thursday.

Answer 8

that is 28 weeks how many days is in a week?

Answer 9

i think u don't hav2 rely on the wedsites just to know wats ur due date... the best way of finding out is to check wid ur OB-Gyn.. she/he knows exactly when it is due... they have the records to prove it.. so better ask them...
