Halle Berry Confirms Pregnancy

Halle Berry emailed Nancy O’Dell at Access Hollywood to confirm that Gabriel Aubry knocked her up:
“Yes, I am three months pregnant! Gabriel and I are beyond excited, and I’ve waited a long time for this moment in life. Now the next seven months will be the longest of my life!†she wrote to Nancy. “Can’t wait to see you and give you a squeeze and see a pic of your little sweetie. Until then, you heard it from ME first!â€
Wow, a ten month pregnancy. Her math is a little fuzzy. Those hormones must already be kicking in. I can understand her excitement. When I first heard the news Halle was pregnant, I tipped a waiter $100 instead of $10. I thought to myself, what’s an extra zero, it’s not worth anything anyway.
Question: Anyone know why pregnancy is commonly referred to as lasting only 9 months?
Answer: The normal length of pregnancy is 37 to 42 weeks. It is perfectly normal for a baby to be born as many as 3 weeks before the due date or as many as 2 weeks after the due date. The due date is usually estimated at 40 weeks (10 months). A 9 month pregnancy is usually predicted because most births occur during the ninth month.

A pregnancy is 10 months. You deliver at the end of the ninth month. After about 40 weeks.

Spoken like a person who has never experienced it! Cindi’s right — it’s 10 months, sometimes longer if you deliver late.

Pregnancy is 40 weeks, beginning from the first day of your last period. Conception doesn’t occur until you ovulate two weeks after your period. So the baby itself is actually only 38 weeks “old” if you were to deliver on your due date, hence the misconception that pregnancy is 9 months (or actually 9 1/2 months).
