Weeks, Months, Trimesters

Just a PSA - although I can solve differential equations, figuring out how many months I am pregnant always seems impossibly complicated.

For reference:

The whole month thing irritates me. when people ask "how far along are you" it is not my job to convert weeks into months for them. Learn how to count pregnancy length or don't ask. Just don't look at me like I'm insane when I say I'm 15 weeks etc.

I was reading this chart to DH earlier and we were recalling how many people did this when I was pregnant with DD! I'd say I'm 32 weeks pregnant and they'd be like, "...sooo how far along are you?!" MIL had the hardest time with it.

The month thing is weird for me...I feel odd saying "I'm in my third month" when I got my bfp at the start of April which was LAST month! I will be using weeks for sure

I usually tell people in months because it's easier to understand. But I don't bother converting from weeks - I just use my due date. So on the 16th of each month I graduate to the next month. If I'm in between somewhere I just say and a half.
