Do you say 5 or 6 weeks...

Question

If you’re 5 weeks and 2 days pregnant, do you say you’re “5 weeks” or “6 weeks”? Since baby is in it’s 6th week of development?

Answer

I always say the exact weeks and days

Answer

I would say 5. Same as when you talk about age. You are technically in the next year, haven't reached it yet (example: with a 6.5 year old, you wouldn't say they were 7 even though they are in their 7th year).

Answer

This post confused me XD I feel dumb. Can someone explain please?

Answer

i think of it like years, if i have a one & a half year old then he’s one, even though he’s in second year of life

Answer

I say 5 weeks.

Answer

If you’re rounding you’d be 5 weeks.

Answer

I say “a little over 5 weeks.”

Answer

It depends on who I’m talking to. I live in Germany and in German at 5w2d you say what translates to “I’m in the 6th pregnancy week” When I speak English I say 5 weeks.
