I'm a bit confused about calculating my pregnancy duration. How exactly do doctors or tests determine the weeks of pregnancy? Is it from the last period or from conception?
Omg I used to get so stressed about this! I was constantly recalculating my weeks online and worrying if my baby was lagging. Honestly, just wait for the dating scan around 8 weeks, it's the only way to get peace of mind.
Doctors always use your last period date (LMP) to count the weeks. Knowing your exact week is key to planning safe activities, like starting mild prenatal yoga or walking only after your doctor gives the green light. Keep track of it on a calendar!
LMP se hi calculate karte hain sab gynacs, haan na? Hamein lagta hai hum 4 week pregnant hain par doctor 6 bol dete hain because of last period date. It gets confusing but scan report mein sahi likha hota hai.
It is actually calculated from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP), not the day you conceived. So even in your first two weeks, you are technically counted as pregnant. Once you get your first ultrasound, the doctor will give you the exact gestational age.
Beta simple rule hai, jis din last time periods shuru huye the wahan se count karo. Baki dadi nani ke nuskhe toh healthy diet ke liye acche hain, par agar weak feel ho ya stomach pain ho toh bina soche doctor se hi milna chahiye.
In my experience, counting from the first day of your last period is the standard way. But don't worry too much if your baby's growth in the first scan shows a few days difference. Let your body grow this little miracle at its own pace.
Arey behan tumhare aakhri mahine ki tareekh se ginti hoti hai. Tumhare doctor ko bata dena woh calendar dekh kar sahi week bata denge. Khush raho aur bilkul darna mat, sab accha hoga.
