It doesn't seen to add up, I know.

I keep counting the weeks and the months.
Today I am 23 weeks, so next week would put me at 24 weeks = 6 months...so that would leave me 3 more months.....
BUT, if you count by weeks..it adds up to 4 more...I don't get it, LOL!
The sooner the better if ya ask me!

I saw the doc today, everything is going just fine, starting next month I go from once a month appointments to twice a month and have scheduled my 3/4D ultrasound for Feb. 12th! I can hardly wait for that!! I will definately share pics of that!

Human gestation is more like 10 months than 9. It's counted from the last known period, so oftentimes that first month is overlooked.

You look great. They say pregnant women glow and I didn't feel glowing when I was pregnant but it must be true....cause you're glowing girl!

Enjoy every minute of your pregnancy and don't wish it away. If I weren't in my 40's I would definitely do it all again in a heartbeat. It's such a special time. This even coming from someone who was horribly ill with morning/afternoon/evening sickness the whole pregnancy. There's nothing like feeling that baby move in there. I miss it.

Pregnancy lasts 40 weeks. So, even though they say 9 months it's really more than that. The most accurate count is counting by weeks rather than months.

I just didn't want you thinking you only had 3months left when you actually have 4!! And that last month waiting can be a killer so your countdown should at least be more accurate!
Hope you enjoy the rest of your pregnancy and have a healthy Baby!!

Congratulations! I'm glad to hear everything is going well.

A month is not 4 weeks. Some months have 5 weeks. Counting every 4 weeks as a month isn't accurite. Sorry about that. Sometimes I swear I felt like I was 10 months due! My oldest is 21. My baby will be 3 next month. I wouldn't steer you wrong.

congrats! how many are pregnant on here?

i did not like being pregnant, but i have to agree that feeling the baby move, there is nothing like that. i just could not breathe and my back hurt so much!!! that is what made me so uncomfortable!

I had the same thing at the end of my pregnancy, but you know how they say you forget all the bad things and only remember the good. It's true. I remember the baby moving and what a miracle seeing my baby for the first time was.

My brain chooses to forget how much I hated not being able to wear my regular clothes, how I threw up several times a day, and let's not even get into labor pains lol.
