Just got my positive and im trying to figure out how many weeks I actually am. My last period date I remember but the whole calculation thing is confusing me. Does any calculator give accurate result or should I wait for scan?
I got so confused because different apps showed different weeks for me. Don't worry, the doctor's dating scan in the first trimester is the final official one to follow.
While online calculators are a good starting point based on your LMP, they are just estimates. It's always best to let your doctor determine the exact gestational age through your early scans.
Knowing how far along you are helps you prepare for the nausea peak. Calculators use your last period date, but your doctor's scan will give the most accurate week.
Just put your last period date (LMP) into any reliable pregnancy app. It gives a good estimate, but the standard dating scan by your gynac is what you should officially follow.
Online calculators are great for quick planning and keeping track of weeks. But don't waste too much time obsessing over days, just go by what your gynac writes on your file.
I used the online LMP calculators but my ultrasound date came out slightly different. Did anyone else have a different due date in their scan compared to the calculators?
