3rd Tri?

love2travel2014 · August 2014

When do you consider 3rd tri to start? It seems like all my books & some websites are all different.

For me, I will say I am 3rd tri at 26w, 6d since that's exactly 2/3's of 40 weeks, but I'll ask my dr next time I go also!

I thought it was 28 weeks but not sure.

I have 28 weeks circled on my calendar...which is Sep 18th for me

. I read 28 weeks in multiple places.

I usually go by 27 or 28 weeks.

Oh wow. Thank you, I needed that! I thought I was in my 5th month...but holy cow, I'm almost 6.5 months! Too many numbers to keep up with, lol!

Lol, that's why I like this chart. Easy to read, easily broken down. That's also why I added my ticker; 'cause I keep forgetting how far along I am!

It does get confusing. I made the mistake last time by thinking of all 9 months being 4 weeks long and somehow with crazy math kept saying "pregnancy is 10 months long!!! Not 9!!!" Yeah. Even now I can't figure out how I came up with that.

Ahhh so close to third tri. I'll be over here trying to not freak out

AZMagnini14 · August 2014

I go by 27. There are reasons for the different dates. I can't remember them though! Something about development.

feeshah · August 2014

That chart needs to be on Pinterest or something. It's awesome.
