I am confused about trimesters...

Please help girls. Today I start my 13th week, so I am starting my 2nd trimester right?

If I break it down like this though - it doesn't make sense
Dec, Jan, Feb = 12 weeks = 1st trimester
March, April May = 2nd trimester
June, July & August = 3rd trimester

but then where is Sept? I am due Sept. 7th?

You cant reallky break it down like that..
Your assuming each month has 4 weeks..
A pregnancy is based on 40 weeks which is about 9 and a half months.. not 9 months

I know your 2nd trimester starts at 12w1d because when you hit 12w you've actually just completed week 12 and started into week 13. I can't remember the rest though... sorry! Chat Icon
