Got confused yaar, doc says im 6 weeks but I thought it should be less from when I actually conceived. Matlab do we count from last period or what? Someone pls explain in simple way.
Oh, I remember this question! It feels a bit weird at first, but yes, they count from your last period date. It seems like such a long way to go in the beginning, but believe me, those weeks just fly by. Enjoy every single one, it's such a special journey.
Haha, it's a bit confusing at first, isn't it! 😄 So your gynac will count from the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP), not when you actually conceived. This is the standard way, even if conception happened later. Makes it easy for them to track the 40 weeks!
Meri saas bhi pehle puchti thi 'kab hua', but actually doc log LMP se count karte hain. Wohi standard hai. Ghar pe log apne hisaab se calculate karte hain, but medical wise, your gynac will always start from the first day of your last period. Don't get confused, just follow the doc.
Honestly, I used to panic trying to calculate it myself, thinking I was doing it wrong! But then my gynac explained it's always from the first day of your Last Menstrual Period (LMP). It's the universal rule and what your dating scan will also confirm. So relax, it's quite straightforward once you know.
Beti, you just focus on staying healthy and positive. The doctor will count your weeks from the first day of your last period, that's how everyone does it. It's God's plan, so trust the process and take good care of yourself and the little one.
Don't worry, a lot of new moms get confused with this. The doctors always count your pregnancy from the first day of your last period, not from when you think you conceived. It's a standard medical calculation to determine your due date, so just go with what your doctor tells you after checking your LMP.
