My mother and amma dont follow the english week counting and keep asking in months. Im trying to explain the week wise thing to them in telugu but getting confused myself. Anyone knows a simple way to count and explain it?
I just delivered and my grandmother used to count weeks in Telugu as 'Varalu'. Since most pregnancy trackers are in English, I just kept a note of weeks and translated it to her. Your doctor will always calculate using the last period date (LMP), so follow that.
Arey counting toh globally same hi hoti hai, whether you say it in Telugu or Hindi! Haan, start counting from your last period date (LMP) and divide it into weeks. In Telugu, they call weeks 'Varalu', na? Ask your doc to make a simple chart for u.
I think many people count weeks based on the last period date, which is called 'Garbhadharana varalu'. I am still learning about these things myself as we are trying to conceive. I hope someone else can explain the Telugu terms better!
Yes, counting is usually done from the first day of your last period. In Telugu, 'Varalu' means weeks and 'Nelalu' means months, and you can track it easily using apps.
