2nd Trimester

F/U to Ticker times....

Why is my ticker correct but when I sign into the Bump on a Saturday, it'll say "you're 18 weeks" but I don't change "weeks" til Tuesdays?? I've checked everywhere I can think of and it says the correct date so why are they calculating it wrong??

  • Crap - placenta brain! Didn't specify! It'll say I'm 18 weeks when I'm still in my 17th week....

  • I believe it's a nod to the fact that when you're 17 weeks plus X days you're actually IN your 18th week. That's the prevailing theory around here anyway.

  • Yeah, I think it just rounds your current week up on your homepage.
  • it does that to me too.  last week on wed. i was "21 weeks" even though i wasn't officially 21 weeks till yesterday.  i think the bump wants this pregnancy to be over just as quickly was i do lol.
  • I've always wondered about that....between 3 websites I am in different weeks at different times.

  • Actually, the bump rounds you up when you hit x weeks and 3 days.

    Ok - that makes sense cuz other days, right after I'm X weeks, it'll be correct. Thanks Ladies!  : )

  • The way my doctor explained it to me...

    If you're 17w3d, you have 17 weeks completed and are 3 days into your 18th week. So, you are in your 18th week.
