EDC stands for Estimated Date of CONFINEMENT, not conception. Of course it could be wrong. It is just an estimate. If it is from a doctor, be sure to take it into consideration, though. It may not be perfect, but a medical expert's advice is always best to follow. An ultrasound will give you a more accurate date if you are unsure of your last period.

doctors are rarely 100% accurate on the date that a baby is actually conceived. however, the methods they use to calculate a conception date is never off by more than 2 weeks either way. the earlier a blood test or sonogram is done, the more accurate it will be, usually within a few days.
