Frequently asked questions

How many weeks are in a month?

On average there are 4.345 weeks in a calendar month. A year has about 52.18 weeks and 12 months, and dividing one by the other gives roughly 4.35 weeks per month, which is why a month is a little longer than exactly 4 weeks.

Is 24 weeks 6 months?

Not exactly. 24 weeks is about 5.5 calendar months, because calendar months average 4.345 weeks rather than 4. Many people still count 24 weeks as 6 months using simple 4-week months, but the exact calendar answer is closer to five and a half months.

How do I convert weeks pregnant vs baby age weeks?

The maths is exactly the same. Whether the weeks describe a pregnancy or a baby age after birth, you convert weeks to months by dividing by 4.345, the average number of weeks in a calendar month. Only the starting point differs — a due date for pregnancy, or a date of birth for a baby.
