The scan date is from your last period.
It is extremely unusual to conceive during a period, but you may need an ultrasound scan to confirm your due date.
There is not enough info to answer the question. When was your last period? Or what is your due date? How far did they say you were at your scan? You can also google due date calculator put in your info and it will give you your answer.
Your hunch is right; the ultrasound date is based on the day your last period ended. So, on average, the 40 week pregnancy begins two weeks before conception has even occured.
After 45 dayz of last period date, an USG can detect the heart beat
It depends when you have your scan. email me with your dates (see my bio page)and I will explain
yes they are ..
YOu can't tell from a pregnancy test what day you conceived. If you have a regulkar 28day cycle it is likely to have been 13-15 days after the START of your last period. An ultrasound scan at around 6 weeks can tell you within a day or two.
I just had a child and I had no idea when my last MP was or when around he was conceived, but if you know already how old around the fetus is, then you can get somewhat of an idea, but it won't be exact. Yes. If you count back two weeks less than the length of your pregnancy, that is approximately when you conceived. For example if your dating scan says you are 10 weeks pregnant, counting back 8 weeks will give you your approximate date of conception.
A last period on 6th Feb with a 35 day cycle would give a due date of 20th November but this still gives a 16 day discrepancy at a very early stage when the scan should be accurate within 2/3 days. Put the date of your scan on the discussion section and I will try to help. englishangel
Hi An ultrasound provides a picture of the baby in the womb. The date of conception could be intelligently guessed at by your gynacologist, probably to within a couple of days if not better.AnswerThe date of conception would be calculated by the professional and the length of pregnancy is found by working back two weeks before this.Ultrasounds have only been around for thirty years or so and before that the only way of calculating the length of pregnancy was from the first day of the last period - on average two weeks before conception as we now know.
Cow and Gate have a pregnancy calculator on their website, or you could just add 9 months and 1 week to the date of the first day of your last period. The only accurate calculation is the first scan.
EDD is ESTIMATED. If done by scan is 38 weeks from conception. An EDD is based on the LMP (last menstrual period) and not the date of conception. The ultrasound measurements are comparing the baby to the expected size of other babies at the same gestational age. The earlier the ultrasound is done in the pregnancy, the more accurate it will be. Hope this helps! Dr. B.
