Im confused yaar, doctor counts from last period but actual conceive toh baad me hua na. So which date do we actually call conception? Trying to figure out my real timeline.
Normally, doctors count your pregnancy from the very first day of your last period! It sounds strange but that is how they calculate the 40 weeks. Don't worry about the exact conceiving date.
Unless you only had sex once that whole month, finding the exact conceiving date is like solving a mystery! Just trust your doctor's LMP calculation or the dating scan. It saves a lot of brain cells!
When I asked my doctor, she explained that they always use the Last Menstrual Period (LMP) as the starting point. The hospital's system automatically calculated my due date based on that during my first ultrasound. You can ask your gynac's assistant to explain it during your next checkup!
I used to panic because my LMP date and my actual conception date didn't match at all. But my gynac reassured me that it's totally normal and the early dating scan is the most accurate way to find the due date. Relax, it's all fine!
I was also so confused about this because my ovulation was late. Did your doctor also change your due date after the first dating scan, or did they keep it as per your last period date?
Stay positive and let nature do its beautiful work. Doctors count the days starting from your last period's first day. Trust in God and don't stress over these small calculations.
It's simple. Doctors use your Last Menstrual Period (LMP) to calculate everything, not the actual day you conceived. Just put your LMP date in any online pregnancy calculator to find your due date.
Haha, unless you tracked your ovulation down to the minute, it's hard to know the exact conceiving date! Doctors just go by the first day of your last period anyway. It's much simpler to follow that.
