Pregnancy Due Date Calculation After Miscarriage & Irregular Periods

Question
Hi I just found out that im pregnant and I had a miscarriage back in september. I dont have regular periods and i try to do the pregnancy tools but they dont add up right. my last period was on October 19th.

Do you know when my due date is and/or when i convieved?

Answer
Dear Jessica,

If you do not have regular periods, it is harder to calculate your due date. BUT I can calculate your due date based on a "norm" of 28 day cycles.

With a LMP of 10/19, you would have been expected to ovulate/conceive on approximately 11/2. This would give you an estimated due date of 7/26/09 and make you 4 6/7 weeks today. (Don't be confused by dating calculations. All pregnancy dating is based on LMP NOT conception date. Conception date is assumed.) Once you get that initial ultrasound, it will help to confirm the dating of the pregnancy for you.

I hope this has helped you and answered your question. I wish you well and congratulations!
