So the best bet is to count 40 weeks as that is more accurate than “9 months”. That’s all I’m saying. 😉👍

We’re rounding to make counting backwards easy so more people can easily participate.

This can’t be so difficult to do with weeks if you really want to be accurate. But if you don’t want to be accurate, of course there’s that option too. I’m only spreading awareness. 👍 I’m not trying to die on this hill or anything…

It’s about ease of use.
I can count on fingers how many months. Tales 10 seconds.
Count 40 weeks back from your birthday with no help in 10 seconds or less.

Count 3 months forward and subtract a year :-).

My guy, my tip is for people who want to be accurate. People like that usually have the means to figure out how to Google “date calculator”.
I get what you’re saying, but you and I have different target demographics I guess, and that’s fine, but let’s let that be the end of it, shall we? 😆 Like I said, this isn’t such a big deal to be having this deep of a discussion about it.
Don’t take my tip as a personal criticism against your character. It isn’t one.
