Im confused about how they count weeks honestly. My doc said im 7 weeks but conception toh later hua na? how does the first week thing work, can someone explain simply?
This was a huge point of confusion for me, I kept overthinking if I was counting right. Don't worry, most doctors count from the first day of your last period, not from conception. So that first week is actually before you even conceive. Just try to relax and follow your doctor's advice on this.
My doctor explained it really clearly during my first visit. Pregnancy weeks are typically calculated starting from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP). So, by the time you actually conceive, you might already be considered 2 weeks pregnant. It's a standard medical calculation to ensure consistent dating.
Oh, the first week! While you're busy thinking about those initial cravings, docs actually start counting from your last period date. It's a bit confusing, I know! Just keep track of your dates.
I was also so confused about this in my first trimester. My gynac told me they count from the first day of your last period. Did everyone else get the same info? It felt a bit strange to count weeks when conception hadn't even happened yet!
