Women are actually pregnant for more than 9 months. 40 weeks is considered full-term, and the big gender-determining sonogram is done at 20 weeks (i.e., about 4 1/2 months.) So she has about another 20 weeks from the date of the sonogram. I'm assuming that was recent, so June 1st sounds about right. First pregnancies are more often late than early anyway.

My son was born on May 31st last year (and I recall my sonogram was a couple of days after New Years too), so maybe they'll share a birthday.
