If I am 16 weeks pregnant, how many months is that?

Many people tell me I am about close to 3 months and some tell me I'm about to go to 5 months. Is this true?

    There are 4.5 weeks in every month except February. You are 3.5 months pregnant.
  • I always divide 40 by 9 and then each increment of that number is 1 month. In other words, 4.4 weeks is 1 month, 8.8 is 2, 13.2 is 3, 17.6 is 4, etc. So you would be about 3 1/2 months pregnant at 16 weeks.

    I think a doctor would say you are already 4 months though because they split it up based on how the baby develops.

  • 4 months im
    16
    Wks & 1 day
  • My calendar says something different I guess because weeks 1-4 isn't really considered a month it's considered week 1-4 and week 5 marks 1 month... Now I'm confused!
  • anyone who wants know "months" with me gets a lie.  Not a blatant lie, more like a stab in the dark.  Pregnant mommies count in weeks and so do doctors, nobody else knows or cares that much about the exact specifics.

  • I had someone say I don't know what that weeks stuff means how many months are you... I was like ummmmmm 3? LOL I never really thought about it!
  • i multiply then divide. for example: im 15 weeks. which is 15x7 (cuz theres 7 days in a week) thats 105. then i divide 105 divided by 30 (30
    days in a month, on average) and that gets me 3 months and 15 days. so im 3 months and a half.

    also as someone said, the first day of your last period. mine was november 24. That also puts me at 3 and a half months. its pretty simple math.
