Haan, doctors toh weeks mein calculate karte hain, pure 40 weeks hote hain na. Par hum ghar pe bas 9 mahine bolte hain.

Legally and medically it's calculated as 40 weeks or 280 days from your last period. Plan your maternity leave keeping this timeline in mind.

My hospital gave me a clear calendar showing exactly 40 weeks. You can ask your coordinator to calculate your EDD so you know your exact milestones.
