Just found out im pregnant and im confused how to count the weeks properly. My periods are thoda irregular so im not sure of dates. How do u all calculate, from last period ya scan?
Most commonly, your doctor will calculate your due date from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). Then, when you get your first ultrasound, they’ll confirm or adjust it based on the baby's size. That's usually the most accurate way to know, so book that first scan!
Oh, the excitement of knowing your date! While you can estimate using your last period, the most accurate way is definitely an ultrasound. My gynac did one and confirmed everything. It really helps you prepare, especially if you get bad morning sickness like I did!
Umm, I'm just trying to conceive, but I heard that doctors usually use the date of your last period to calculate. And then maybe a scan helps? It's all so new to me, just learning. Hope you find out soon!
When you go for your first check-up at a good hospital, the doctors there are very precise. They'll ask for your last period date and then do an early scan to confirm the exact gestational age and due date. Don't hesitate to ask them all your doubts clearly.
Yaar, this is something I'm curious about too as I'm planning! I know there are online calculators that use your last period date, but everyone says the ultrasound scan is the most reliable. Are you just starting to track your dates?
