Why does the moon appear to move north and south during the course of a lunar month?
The plane of the moon's orbit and the plane of the earth's equator are not parallel. There is a 28½° tilt between the two planes, which causes the apparent north and south shift in the moon's position through the month. It is also why there is not an eclipse every month.
The two points in the moon's orbit where it intersects the plane of the earth's orbit of the sun are called nodes. If the moon is at a node at the time of the new moon, a solar eclipse happens, and if the moon is at a node at the time of the full moon, a lunar eclipse happens.

What is the lunar month during pregnancy?
A lunar month is approximately 29.5 days long, and a pregnancy typically lasts around 9 lunar months, equivalent to about 10 months on the Gregorian calendar. This is because a lunar month is shorter than a calendar month, so the total time of pregnancy is longer when calculated in lunar months.
What week of the month does the waning moon appear?
There is not a simple answer to that. A waning moon is the stage after a full moon, after which less and less of the moon appears to be lit from night to night. The orbit of the moon does not take an exact month and of course different months have different lengths, so the time in a calendar month that the moon is waning does not occur at the same time each month. A lunar month is roughly, but not exactly 4 weeks. The waning period is about 2 weeks. If we simplify a lunar month to being 4 weeks, then the Moon is waning during the 3rd and 4th week.
