I wish all breakdowns of weeks=months in pregnancy were the same.
It's just confusing.
One website tells me I am 5.5 months, another tells me I'm starting my 6th month. Ugh! Why do they have to vary so much?! There should be just ONE way to figure it all up.
I would love to go by this:

Since according to their calender I am 6 months....but I don't think thats right. I consider myself 5.5 months.
Oh well!

I read in the "Pregnancy Journal" that the months in pregnancy are actually lunar months, which are 4 weeks or 28 days. And since pregnancy is actually 10 months, you can count each 4 weeks as a month. Other books/websites try to stick with the standard 9 month idea, so they cram an extra week into a few of the months here and there, which is dumb. So next week at 16 weeks, I am calling myself 4 months pregnant. You may be 5.5 months pregnant, but you are still in your 6th month. I'm in my 4th month, but haven't read the "4 month" mark. Know what I mean?
