It depends on the person.... Co-workers, and friends I say months unless they specifically ask me how far along that is in weeks... doctors and DH, sometimes my parents I will say weeks....

I go by weeks just because I get confused as to when each month starts.

Depends on who I'm talking to and how impressive I want to sound.  Right now months sound longer! But I know both, read my little pregnancy books every night.

I go by weeks. If I were to say 4 weeks is one month, then I'd be pg 10 months...not going there! lol

I go by weeks too for that reason... plus I always forget what months corrispond to which weeks. And mental math, while pregnant IS NOT my strong suit LOL

I always go by weeks initially then frantically try to figure out the months in my head when the person looks confused.

I go by weeks because I look at my ticker to remember how far along I am. My brain is mush these days.

Yup weeks here too... if they want to figure out how many months that is, then they're free to do so!
Of course right now it's easiest to just say "we're halfway cooked!"

I go by weeks. If I go by months then I'm only 4 1/2 months at 20 weeks and that stinks! LOL I like saying 20 weeks because most people assume a month is 4 weeks and not 4 weeks and a couple of days so they do the math to 5 months.

I always say the weeks.... *I too* have trouble with when the new months start and all that....
Plus, my "new week" starts on Sunday, so that is sooo much easier! lol
