I keep getting confused with this week vs month thing. My family asks kitne mahine ho gaye and i never know what to say. From which week does 8th month start exactly?
I totally understand wanting to know exactly where you are in this beautiful journey! The 8th month usually begins once you've completed 31 full weeks of pregnancy. It's such an exciting time as you get closer to meeting your little one. Keep cherishing every moment.
From what I remember from my journey, the 8th month typically begins when you complete your 31st week of pregnancy. It's really the home stretch then, and you'll start feeling the baby's movements even more strongly. Just enjoy these last few months of bonding.
Arre yaar, this weeks vs months thing is so confusing, actually! Most docs and apps count it like, once you finish 31 weeks, you're in your 8th month. So, start of 32nd week means 8th month started. Just keep counting the weeks, it's simpler than months.
Generally, people say 8th month starts after you finish 31 weeks. My Amma also used to count it that way, 31 weeks completed means you are *in* your 8th month. But it's good to confirm with your doctor, they have the exact calculation based on your due date.
My pregnancy app always marked the 8th month starting around 31 weeks and 1 day. Basically, after you complete your 31st week, you're in your 8th month. It's usually based on completing the weeks of the previous month. Very helpful to track with an app!
I'm in my second trimester now and already thinking about this! Is it like, when you complete 28 weeks or 31 weeks? It feels so confusing because some places say one thing, some say another. What did you guys go by?
