Hello mga ka team December!

Question

Im currently 23w1d now, 6 months na po yun diba? Now, may kakilala ako na 24weeks na nitong nakaraang week so 25weeks na sya ngayon kung tutuusin, nakausap ko siya kahapon she asked me kung ilang months na me, and I told naman na 23weeks/6months, then she said na mauuna daw ako manganak sakaniya, then bigla ko naisip na baka mali ako ng bilang or di accurate tong app na ginagamit ko o baka nasa sakaniya yung mali and nakapost pa nga sa wall nya nung nakaraang week na 24weeks na daw siya then I tried to asked her kung ilang weeks na sya now though I know naman na 25weeks na sya, sagot niya Di niya daw alam basta mag si-6 months palang daw sya. Bigla ako naparanoid baka mali ako ng bilang ko ng akin kase importante yun satin na alam natin diba mga mi? 🥲 #1stimemom #advicepls #pleasehelp

Hala, dont stress mama! Youre actually right, 23 weeks is roughly 5.5 to 6 months depending on how you count it, kaya youre spot on with your app. Your friend might just not be tracking as closely, which is totally normal din kasi hindi lahat ng moms are super into the week-by-week thing, pero since she posted 24 weeks last week, she should be around 25 weeks now talaga, so youll likely deliver around the same time or she might go a bit earlier, its really hard to predict! A few of us in my mum group had slightly different due dates but delivered within days of each other, kaya ang hirap mag-assume. Honestly, the best thing is to just trust your app (most are accurate if you entered your LMP correctly) and not let her comment get in your head, every pregnancy is different anyway, and babies come when theyre ready! Just focus on your own journey, mamsh.
