There are 365.24 days in a year = 52.17 weeks in a year = 4.39 weeks in a month (most people think we have 4 weeks in a month due to rounding it off however that .39 can make a big difference in the end!) 4.39 weeks (per month) mulitiplied by 9 months = 39.51 weeks gestational period. or you could also say 40 weeks divided by 4.39 weeks per month = 9.1 months In short there are 39.51 weeks in 9 months and there are 43.9 weeks in 10 months.

How many months are women pregnant?

You are pregnant for 40 weeks, which equals 10 months. Doctors give you a 4 week window that allows you to either deliver 2 weeks early or two weeks later then your actual due date. So they consider your pregnancy 9 months, but when at the doctors they count by weeks not months.
