Everyone keeps saying 9 months but then the doctor counts in weeks from last period and now im totally confused about the actual timeline. I roughly know when we conceived so i want to count from that. Can someone clear this up?
Haan it's around 9 months na, but doctors say 40 weeks from last period. Conception itself is about 2 weeks after that. Either way it feels long towards the end, trust me.
The apps usually count 40 weeks from your last period, not from conception. It's roughly two weeks difference. Took me a while to understand that honestly.
My doctor explained that from actual conception it's about 38 weeks, but officially we count 40 weeks from the last period. That's why the dates feel a bit confusing. The scan helped clear it up for me.
