I am in the same situation - more trips though 11 in total with 2 long trips (3 months then back for a week and another trip for 5 months ) however they were all to Europe. Ill let you know, my interview is a day before yours.
 
All this will depend on if you meet the residency requirement since you were a PR. Depends on how long the trips were etc. Each case is different, so the IO may or may not think they need to follow up on them and you may or may not get your oath. You won't know until the interview. Each IO is different just like every applicant.

As long as you have maintained US residency, haven't shown you were working abroad etc, haven't been out for an extended time or back to back extended trips (5 months, back a week, 5 more months etc) then generally there shouldn't be a problem. However, IOs can and have still denied people for less then that. It all depends on your supporting documents...

Lucky number 7. It depends on how long the trips were, how often, and for what purpose.
 
thanks guys for the reply its my mom i was visiting minimum i stayed 7 days and the max was about 18 days and all the trips total days i stayed outside the country comes upto 80 days only

Short trips of this frequency are not an issue.

That't not a problem at all. I stayed outside the country for about 310 days in 4 separate trips (none more than 6 months) and had no problems whatsoever.
 
It is the duration of the trips and not the number of trips that makes or breaks the residency requirements.

Correct, but immigration intent is based on the frequency and duration of those trips. For example, numerous back to to back trips of 5 months technically don't presume break in continuous residency, but they can bring into question your immigration intent.
