  22 weeks makes you about 5.5 months.

  the "10 months" thing is because Dr's count the month you got pregnant as a month of gestation. So technically the first day of your last period started your first month of pregnancy, even though you weren't even pregnant yet, so by the time you get your positive test you're already "4 weeks along". I have the same EDD as you and I just say 5.5 months.

  This is how I've been doing it:
  
  Forget the 10 months thing. It's easy for me because I happen to be due in September, the 9th month. So on my due date I'm 9 months pregnant. So each previous month, when I hit the # day of my due date (the 21st for me), I'm that many months along. 8/21 will be 8 months, 7/21 was 7 months, etc.
  
  So in your case, 12/1 = 9 months, 11/1 = 8 months, 10/1 = 7 months, 9/1 = 6 months, 8/1 = 5 months.
  
  If every month was 28 days you could just divide by 4, but they're not.

  I agree. A lot of ppl divide by 4 and there's more than 4 week's in a month besides February. I'm just counting backwards from my DD. Its easier that way.

  I don't convert to months. Pregnancy is measured in weeks. If people ask, I tell them weeks. They can do whatever they want with that information.

  This, but I always went by weeks

  March 2011: Off Nuva, cycle back to "normal" for me: No periods since 15 years old. June 2011:Provera&50 mg Clomid; Progesterone:0.7 July 2011:Provera&100mg Clomid; Progesterone:3.29 Met with RE:No Clomid response, begin injectables Sep 5 mg Letrozole and Ovidrel in the interim month. Cut out running (was a distance-runner), cycling, eliptical. Restricted to weight-training, walking, pilates. Brain MRI normal. Being physically over-stressed is the reason the body stopped producing prog. Late Sep 2011: Menopur, Ovidrel,& IUI (10.10.11):BFN-Great injectable response: 2 mature, 6 near mature, many smaller; Problem: 9 cysts! Dr: IUI too uncontrolled for number of viable eggs & age. On to IVF! IVF ER 12.6: 37 mature eggs, 27 fertilized, froze all to avoid overstimulation; FET 1.22 (2 Grade 1)=BFN; FET 2.22 (3 Grade 2)=BFP! Beta 10dp3dt=291; 12dp3dt=644; HB 3.26!! 174 bpm: Vanishing twin almost completely absorbed 10wks
