Last trimester and pregnancy math

This is it, peeps. Going into the home stretch now.
I realized yesterday with horror I can no longer count. I thought I had three months left until the baby arrives.
Not so. I have two months.
I don't think I can be blamed, though. I blame pregnancy math. How is it that a typical 40-week pregnancy is considered nine months? Last I remember, 40 divided by 4 weeks in a month equals 10 months, right? So you would think nine months divided into three equal trimesters would mean the last trimester means the last three months. Eu sou confusa.
Darn online pregnancy calendars....

What a beautiful belly shot! :)
Oh, and thanks for the link to the Easter activity. How cool is that??? We'll definitely be trying that one!
Well, however long it is, I hope you are comfortable and happy!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Those pregnancy calendars are too confusing...the first month goes well over what I thought was 4 weeks in a month...we need to redo it and say we are pregnant for 10 months! :)
Great belly shot!
Your belly is beautiful! Really. I remember mine being ginormous, and having to tote it around like a shopping cart around that time.
Yea, the whole 9 month thing is such a lie.
yea, the math was always bit confusing to me, too. Like how they count the weeks from before you even conceive....how does that work?
First of all, I am jealous and a little bitter that your tummy looks that cute and you are 7 months along.
Secondly, MY pregnancy math was always the opposite (I had MORE to go than I thought), so I'm a little bitter at your for that too.
BUT. I like you, so I'll get over it. :)
And you and your belly DO look DARLING!
You're right, it *is* ten months!
You've got a cute little bump for a third trimester, mine were always huge and unseemly. Pregnancy math always confused me too. I barely made it to 37 weeks with my last one, so that translates to 9 months and a week? But I was early...wth?
For my last pregnancy, I found out I was pregnant at 3 weeks. Talk about a LONG 40 weeks. Your belly is so petite and cute. I agree with Ms. Cecily. Way to cute to be seven months! Great photo.
You are so cute! I think I have a hump instead of a bump!
WOW TWO MONTHS left ... k that is frightening since once you go ... I go ...
You look great! I looked done at 7 months......... oh yeah I had twins last, that could do it!!!!
Love the belly shot!
You look adorable!!! Pregnancy has made me incapable of doing simple math, spelling and speaking intelligently! The third trimester totally snuck up on me too and now these last three weeks are d-r-a-g-g-i-n-g by!!
Looking good! Great shot!
I never understood the math, either!
Beautiful Belly. And just hang in there - the last two months are when you JUST CAN'T WAIT TO GET THIS OVER WITH! Or so I've been told.
Ha! Yeah, I stayed confused through my entire pregnancy. Lovely belly pic!
