Does your DH/OH know how many weeks you are?

My DH hasn't a clue! He loses track really quickly. I test him sometimes and hes always way out. I am 26 weeks and asked him a couple of days ago how many weeks am I now and he said 30! 4 weeks out.

How are the other men doing?

I asked mine last night, he said sheepishly he knew I only had 7 weeks left (I am 33 weeks). I said well you should know how many weeks I am then! And he had no idea pregnancy was 40 weeks! So he sort of knew...
(Could do better.)

DH knows - every thursday he sings a little song to bump (based around happy birthday) - it's 28 this week!

Bahahahaha, I'm not sure I know myself most days! But it is no.2 not my first pregnancy....

Pleased to hear other second timers struggle to remember how many weeks they are. I said 17 to someone on Friday when asked (I think to fill the awkward silence on trying to remember), and quickly adjusted it to 27 weeks (which is correct!)

As for him, well, he would have no idea what so ever.......but he does know the due date (although I suspect thats only because its his birthday!!)

I asked DH (this is DC2). His first response was "I don't know how it works - do you count up or down?" Followed by "20 weeks?" Which is only 3 weeks out. He clearly leaves thinking about some things entirely to me.

He knows this week but only because we have the 12 week (actually at 12 weeks, or 12+1 if I'm being pedantic! DD was at 14weeks!) today.

I was confident dh would know so I asked him and he was 6 weeks out. He knows my due date and how long I have left etc but got the sums wrong. It is our second and he is shit with numbers so I can easily forgive him. x

Have had our pfb, DH knew from the dating scan at 11 weeks. Every Friday we'd look up vegetable sizes before going to work.
