Pregnancy Conception Date: Calculating Due Date Based on LMP


Question
I was wondering if you could tell me when I conceived. Early ultrasound due date states Feb 6, 2008, but my last menstrual cycle was April 13, 2007. Please let me know thanks.

Answer
Without having any other information (like how long your periods usually are, when you might have had intercourse, etc) it is nearly impossible for me to give you a good date.

If we go strictly off your LMP (last menstrual period) and assume that April 13th was when you started your period, you would have had your baby by now most likely as your due date would have been January 20th. =) However, you would have conceived between April 25th and April 19th.

If we go off your due date, you most likely conceived between May 13th and May 18th. If you had sexual intercourse anytime between May 10th and May 20th, this would have been the encounter that got you pregnant.

As I said, these are just guesses based off the little information you gave me and what the conception date would be for the average woman.

Please let me know if I can help you further or with anything else.

Best wishes,
Helen =)
