Pregnancy Timeline Calculator: Estimate Your Conception Date


Question
QUESTION: if my due date was january 28 when did i got pregnant

ANSWER: Most likely you got pregnant early to mid May - probably somewhere between 5/4 and 5/8, assuming you ovulated on the 14-15th day of your cycle.  If you ovulated before/after that, the date of conception may be different.  If you had any ultrasounds, that could help pinpoint it better.

QUESTION: so if i had sex with my husband all april and my period was like the second week in april but i had sex with my ex in the early of may but wen i went to the doctor on june the 4 i was seven weeks and one day so do u think its my husband

Answer
Did you have an ultrasound on June 4?  If you did and it showed 7 weeks and 1 day, that points to late April or early May as to when you conceived. (when you say a pregnancy is 7 weeks and 1 day, that really means that you probably conceived FIVE weeks, 1 day before then - a pregnancy is dated from the first day of your last period, even though you technically aren't pregnant at all during that first two weeks)

If the doctor did not do an ultrasound at that time, but estimated the age from the information about your period, it is less accurate.

Because you had sex with two different men close to the time of conception, I can't give you any degree of certainty as to who is the father.  If you had the u/s which showed a 7 week 1 day pregnancy, it is more likely that your husband is the father.  If you go by the January 28 due date, it does point to a May conception.  I would suggest asking your doctor or midwife about when he or she thinks you conceived; they will have more information about what's going on with your pregnancy than I do and will be able to give you the best estimate of when conception took place.  

Good luck!
