My dates are a bit irregular so im not fully sure when it happened. Doc gave a due date but I wanted to figure out the conception month myself. How do u calculate it back?
Actually, knowing the exact conception month is less important than your Estimated Due Date (EDD) for planning purposes, like hospital bookings or tests. Your doctor will mostly use your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) to calculate your EDD, and then work backwards for an approximate conception date. The dating scan is usually the most accurate for this.
Modern apps are really helpful for this! If you track your periods, most pregnancy apps will show you an estimated conception date based on your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) and average cycle length. But the most accurate way is always through an early ultrasound, which your doctor will do to confirm the dating.
It's so sweet that you're trying to figure this out! Usually, doctors calculate it from the first day of your last period, and then conception is considered about two weeks after that. It still feels like a magical moment, no matter how much you try to calculate it precisely. Enjoy this special time, it goes by so fast.
Haan, basically jo tumhara last period start hua tha na, uski first date se calculate karte hain. Uss date se around 2 weeks ke baad conception hua hoga. Baaki, your gynac will confirm your due date with a scan, tab aur clear ho jayega.
Oh my god, I keep wondering this too! I'm planning right now, so I'm trying to track my ovulation so I can know the approximate time. Everyone says it's around 2 weeks after your last period started. It's so exciting to think about exactly when it might happen, right?
