when does the third trimester officially start?

Question

I am 26 weeks pregnant. My math skills are telling me 28 weeks would be 7 months. 28 divided by 4 is 7 months. So why is this app telling me that 26 weeks is the beggining of the third trimester? Help a confused girl with lackluster math skills!? Ha ha

Answer

Hope this helps

Answer

It's 28 weeks. Last trimester is exactly 3 months. The second is longer to make up for the extra month.

Answer

I'm 27 weeks and all my apps tell me I'm in the last week my 2nd trimester. 3rd trimester starts at week 28 😊

Answer

Technically at 26 weeks you are in your 27 week (ex. The first day you became pregnant you were in your 1st week of pregnancy, once you hit 1 week your in your 2nd week and so on). That's why some apps will tell you that.
