LOL, just to add to the confusion. My doctor told me that your first actual month is a considered a zero month. So according to him you have 0mth=1-4wks, 1=5-8,2=9-12,3-16,4-20,5!-24,6%-28,7)-32,83-36,97-40. Like Tanya said if you ask someone else you get something different. I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant so according to my doctor I'm 7 months. Going by this you would be 3 months. You well start your 4 month next week at 17 weeks. :) Have you asked your doctor to see what he/she says?
