Just found out im pregnant and the doc said im 6 weeks but i thought it would be less. Got confused how they count, matlab from which date exactly? Pls explain in simple way.
I always measured my weeks by what size of fruit the baby was in my app, like a lemon or a mango! But biologically, it starts from the first day of your last period. It's a fun excuse to celebrate every weekly milestone with a nice treat!
Hey, don't stress too much about the exact days and calculations! Just open any pregnancy app, put in the first day of your last period, and let it do the math for you. It's super simple!
Beta, traditionally we used to count by months, but nowadays doctors count by weeks starting from your last period date. To stay strong during these weeks, make sure you drink warm milk with a little saffron or eat soaked almonds daily. Take care of your health.
Doctors start the count from the first day of your last period! 🗓️ So technically, you are already "two weeks pregnant" when you actually conceive. It's a bit confusing but so exciting to watch the weeks fly by! 😊
Measuring weeks can be quite stressful when you are constantly praying for things to go well. Doctors calculate it from your last period's start date, but they will confirm the exact gestational age in your dating scan. Just take it one day at a time, dear.
It is calculated from the first day of your last period, so even before the baby is actually conceived, the countdown begins. God has designed this beautiful timeline so perfectly. Keep a peaceful mind and enjoy tracking each week!
From my experience, you always start counting from the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP). Even if you conceived later, doctors use this standard date because it's hard to know the exact ovulation day.
