That is how far along I am in my pregnancy. I hate when people ask me how far along I am in months because a) I don't really keep track of it that way and b) it is really confusing to try and figure out. I mean, most people just say, divide by 4 weeks but that really doesn't work because months aren't an exact measurement and there are acutally about 4.35 weeks in a month on average. So, thus I am actually 5.7 months pregnant, however, most baby books and journals have a totally different way of doing it as depicted in the table below. So I am in my 6th month, meaning I have completed up to 5 months and am working towards a complete 6 months. So to say I am 6 months would be inaccurate at this point even though that appears to be the way that most women would gauge it. Does this bother anyone else?!
| Weeks | 1 - 4 | 5 - 8 | 9 - 13 | 14 - 17 | 18 - 21 | 22 - 26 | 27 - 30 | 31 - 35 | 36 - 40 |
| Which Month are you in? | You are in your first month | You are in your second month | You are in your third month | You are in your fourth month | You are in your fifth month | You are in your sixth month | You are in your seventh month | You are in your eighth month | You are in your ninth month |

| This is Month | one | two | three | four | five | six | seven | eight | nine |

Your belly is so cute!
Ha ha! I have also totally argued about the way you count "pregnancy time". Like when you are nine months, you still have to complete a month before you have a baby. It doesn't make a lot of sense. By the way, you are so cute pregnant, and I love the nursery set!
Ha! I totally know what you mean, it gets soooo confusing. Ive given up trying to explain it or being "exact" when people ask me... its more like I close to this # of mos or just over # of mos.
Your belly is so cute! Congratulations!!
You are still so tiny for being 5.7 months pregnant--and so cute! Love the nursery set too!
My sentiments exactly. You look so cute.
