Frequently Asked Questions

Is 12 weeks ago the same as 3 months ago?

No, they're not the same. 3 months ago would be October 22, 2024, while 12 weeks ago would be October 30, 2024 - about a 8-day difference. This occurs because months vary in length (28-31 days) while weeks are consistently 7 days.

How do I calculate 12 weeks ago in different time zones?

To calculate 12 weeks ago, subtract 84 days from today. This gives the same date globally since it’s based on days, not exact times.

Time zones only shift specific times (like a 3 PM meeting), but dates remain unaffected. So, the result will be consistent worldwide.

What year was 12 weeks ago?

It was October 30, 2024, approximately 2 months ago.

Does calculating 12 change in leap years?

No, because weeks are based on days, not months or years. Whether it’s a leap year or not, 12 weeks ago is still 84 days before today.

This is different from calculations involving months or years, which do need to account for leap years.

12 Weeks Ago Recap

Remember 12 weeks ago, on April 16, 2025? While it might feel like yesterday, the calendar pages have been quietly turning since.

Earth has waltzed through space for 134 million miles, carrying us all on an incredible journey through the cosmos. Your heart has beaten approximately 8,652,000 times, you've likely consumed 252 meals (give or take a few midnight snacks), potentially scrolled through your phone 4,872 times (we're not judging!), and hopefully enjoyed most of your 672 hours of recommended sleep. The coffee enthusiasts among us might have sipped through 210 cups of their favorite brew.

Those 61 business days might feel like a blur of meetings and deadlines, but they've been balanced by 24 precious weekend days. Speaking of balance, the moon has gracefully shifted through 2 of its phases.

If someone had been counting (which, let's face it, only we would), you've had the chance to generate about 504,000 thoughts, ranging from profound life revelations to wondering what's for lunch. You could have binge-watched 7 entire TV series - though we hope you spent some of that time on the 336,000 steps you could have taken instead!

When you break it down into 2,016 hours, or 120,960 minutes, or even 7,257,600 seconds, you realize how many tiny moments have made up this chunk of time from Wednesday, April 16 to today.
