Everyone keeps asking which trimester im in and honestly i get confused. is it counted from my last period or from conception? doc said something but i didnt fully understand the week to trimester thing.
Haan na, it's counted from the first day of your last period, not from when you actually conceived. So it's roughly 13 weeks for each of the three trimesters. Your doctor will calculate your due date, so don't get too confused with the weeks, okay? Just remember it's 3 parts of the journey.
Oh, this confused me so much initially! They calculate from your last period date, which feels weird because you weren't actually pregnant then, right? I always used to double-check my dates. It's roughly 13 weeks per trimester, making it 40 weeks total. Just follow what your doctor says, they'll give you the official dates.
Okay, so it's a bit of a trick question, because they start counting from the first day of your last period! So you're 'pregnant' for a couple of weeks before you're even pregnant, haha! It's basically 3 periods of 13-14 weeks each. Your gynac will give you the exact dates, don't worry about the math too much, just enjoy the ride.
Pregnancy trimesters are usually calculated from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP), even though conception happens later. Each trimester is roughly 13 weeks. Just focus on taking good care of yourself and your little one, and stay positive. God is with you on this beautiful journey.
