Probably been asked a million times before ... but how many weeks is 6 months?

Is it 24 weeks pregnant or 6 calendar months after your conception date? I know it's nearly 10 months in total ... but does that make someone who is 36 weeks 9 months pregnant?

Confused!

Thanks in advance x

Just tell people in weeks, much easier!

I'm a bit of a nerd so I worked out the average month is 30 days, so 6 months is 180 days or 25 weeks and 5 days. But weeks are much easier!

6 months is half a year so 26 weeks.

Calendar months don't make a lot of sense, best ignoring them when pregnant and if people really want to know how many months just give a rough "about 5 months" it changes so quick anyway.
