I am 36 weeks pregnant

This week of pregnancy you start counting from your last menstrual period, but since most women are not aware of the exact day they conceived their baby, it makes sense. No pregnancy symptoms will be evident this week.

Many mother-to-be's can, however, remember the day their period started, so it makes a clear starting point for determining your baby's due date. It can be a bit confusing to remember to begin counting from when your period starts and that in reality you don't become pregnant until about 2 weeks later. For example, if your doctor or midwife says you are 12 weeks pregnant (from your LMP), then you conceived approximately 10 weeks ago.
