Q. I've always been told that pregnancy lasts nine months, but with so many of my friends pregnant, they're using pregnancy calculators on facebook and it says pregnancy lasts 40 weeks, which is TEN months! What the heck? If that's right, then why have we always been told nine months? Why is it in the media? Why do they name fricken MOVIES after nine-month pregnancies just to confuse the crap out of us?
An explanation would be great, because everything I thought I knew about being pregnant is probably wrong. Thanks.

A. Well it's 9 months because months have more than 4 weeks the average is 4 weeks 3 days (4.33).
If you divide that by 40 you get 9.2 which would be 9 months 2 weeks but did you know the first 2 weeks of pregnancy you are actually not pregnant? But because doctors don't know the exact day that conception happen they start to count from your LMP.
Confusing right? But that is how it works.

How many weeks pregnant were you before you got your first positive pregnancy test?

How much weight is okay to have gained around 22 weeks of pregnancy? How much did you gain?
Q. I know they say "every pregnancy is different" but still what is the general answer.
A. I think you are supposed to have gained around 10-14 pounds by this point according to a weight calculator I used. I have only gained 5 pounds and feel like that is more than enough. I am 21 weeks pregnant!
I started out at a normal height and weight. 5'3'' and 124 pounds.

A. The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you�re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:
*1) Burn more calories then your consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity. Get a fitness calculator that you can put on your cell phone and computer. This will allow you to easily calculate this formula, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.
*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.
Avoid �High Glycemic Load Carbs� (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as white potatoes) and drink lots of water.
Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Here is an excellent food pyramid that anyone can follow: http://www.rayandterry.com/html/images/PyramidLRG.gif?osCsid=26a424be471d1337e7c2f105d5c64d9d
