Am I smoking something or something? I mean. I've been pregnant twice before and I always THOUGHT the 2nd trimester started at 13 weeks.
Uhhh... not so says Babycenter.com
I get these email updates every week about my pregnancy. You know, how big the baby is now, what it's doing, how now in my 14th week I should just start showing.. HA! Oh and ALSO how 14 weeks is the start of the 2nd trimester? Como? Whhhaaat? Hold on, hold on. OK so maybe I just assumed with the other two that you know, after 12 weeks, when 3 months is passed that I'm no longer in my 1st trimester. I mean I know I know, 40 weeks, but still... dude. Way to throw a mama off! Did I never notice this before with my girls or did someone all of a sudden decide that 14 weeks is the NEW 2nd trimester?
What the heck. So TODAY I am now in my 2nd trimester. Not last week like I thought. Whatever.
I still feel like barfing so it doesn't matter anyway.

12 weeks is not quite 3 months though. Every month has 4.3 weeks in it, making 3 months more like 13 weeks. So at the end of 13 weeks would be the end of the first trimester.
Make sense? lol
It's just so weird. I guess I never paid much attention to it the first two times? :) I hate that everyone says 9 months. 40 weeks is NOT nine months!
I have noticed that they are always coming up with new math techniques... maybe this is a new technique as well. Congrats!
40 weeks IS nine months.
4.3 weeks in a month.
4.3 x 9 = 38.7
So less one week. 9 months and one week.
