What does it mean when MNers post 33 weeks + 1 or +4. What does the + number mean? I feel thick and majorly confused.

It means days or example 33 week plus 1 day is 33+1. Hope this helps :-)

33 weeks and 1 day so if you're 33 weeks on the Monday then Tuesday is 33+1

Medics always record to the day rather than the week and it gets important towards the end for if you're going over due.
