Ok, help with weeks of pregnancy

BallSox

Everytime I think I get it figured out, something confuses me. 

If I'm 15.4, that means I'm in my 16th week and should be reading information about that week, correct?  Or am I reading ahead and they've accounted for technicality and the 15th week information is for whats going on between 14.6 and 15.6? 

I know it doesn't really matter, but my OCD is kicking in.

I've thought the same exact thing LOL

I gave up and I just started reading the stuff for the week I start.  Tomorrow I'll read 18 week stuff.

Yes, 16th week.

 

Your first week of pregnancy was from 0w0d to 0w6d, so your 2nd week is 1w0d-1w6d, and so on.

This. I was trying to type out an answer that said this and I failed.

I always read whatever week I was on.   If I was 15 weeks pg, then I'd read week 15.

I remember it like this by your age if you are 26 you have completed 26 years and you are IN your 27th year.... Make sense?

I'm sorry but you're in your 16th week.

Another example: When you are 1 year 2 months old you are in your 2nd year of life. Your first year of life was from 0-12 months. It works the same way.

That's what I figured, that I had completed 15 weeks (if I was 15.5) so then I'd be in my 16th week.  Everytime I get convinced of one way, then something happens and I question it.  lol.

This. But I kept confusing myself so I just read the week that matches the number

I had SO many arguments with my FIL over this. He always had it backwards and would try to convince me I was wrong.
