How are weeks calculated?

Could someone help me understand the whole weeks + days thing please? If on August 14th I was 11+6, what am I today? Is there an 11+7? Or does it go to 12+0? Or is it just 12? Or is it 12+1?

I’d suggest getting an app to do it for you!

Surely today you're 14+4? The first number is weeks and the second number is days.

But no, it won’t be 11+7. 7 would turn into the next week, so would go 11+6 then 12

As Eve said above you’re 14+4 but in answer to your question it’s 11+6 and then 12

It looks like every Tuesday you’ll move to the next week. So on the 15th august you were 12 weeks, 29th august you were 14 weeks now you’re 14+4 as above x

Okay thank you so much! I can’t believe I didn’t think about an app, always calculate it by days from the 14th 😅 thank you! ❤️

Baby center app is a good one too

no worries. Thursday is our day that we move into the next week. I’d highly recommend the two apps as my hubby and I watch the weekly video every week on a Thursday, tells you what’s going on with baby and mum that week. It’s been a lovely bonding thing we do every week 🥹

Just see it as every Tuesday you’re a new week. Wednesday is my day. So next Tuesday, you’ll be 15 weeks x
