Just found out im pregnant and everyone keeps asking how far along i am but i genuinely dont know. My cycles are not regular so im confused from which date to count. How do you all figure it out?
Haan na, humein lagta hai conception date se count hoga, but standard LMP se hi start hota hai. First day of your last period ko hi day 1 maante hain. Baki first scan mein doctor clear bata hi denge.
Honestly, don't stress over manual calculations. The gynac will count from your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) first day. During my dating scan at 8 weeks, they adjusted the date slightly based on baby's size.
Standard way is counting from the first day of your last period (LMP). But in my case, my periods were irregular, so the doctor calculated it using the early ultrasound scan. That scan is very reliable.
It is totally okay to feel overwhelmed by all these calculations, I was so anxious about getting the date wrong! Just remember, doctors always count from the first day of your last period. Your first ultrasound scan will also help confirm the exact date.
I felt so confused about this at first! But my doctor calculated it from the first day of my last period (LMP), not the day we actually conceived. It felt strange to add those extra weeks, but that's how it is done.
From what I've read, the calculation starts from the first day of your last period. It can be a bit confusing since conception happens later. But a doctor's scan is the most accurate way to find out.
