It is possible with modern pregnancy tests to have them come up positive 11 days after conception. You may have conceived a couple of days earlier scans may be out by that much.
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.
The earlier it is the more accurate it is whether from conception or from LMP, but if you say 12 weeks you mean from LMP.
Implantation typically occurs 6-12 days after conception. Three weeks after conception would be around the time when a pregnancy test could give a positive result due to rising levels of the hormone hCG, but implantation itself would have occurred earlier.
When one is pregnant, one of the possible signs is a change in coloring to blue in this area.
9 months earlier
No. If four ultrasounds all give the same date then that is accurate to about 5 days. Even one first trimester ultrasound would be sufficient.
Yes, it is possible for flights to depart earlier than their scheduled time.

Usually a doctor wants to see you for the first ultrasound when you're appr. 10-13 weeks pregnant.

Approx 9 months, 9 days earlier... do the math!
The best person to ask is the person doing the ultrasound. Having said that here are a few guidelines. Ultrasounds can give you a fairly accurate time for the length of the pregnancy. Before 10 weeks the measurement taken is crown-rump length, from the top of the head to the bottom of the spine. This is accurate to within 3-4 days. After about 12 weeks several measurements are taken, head circumference, head diameter and abdominal diameter as well as femur length and the results are plotted on a graph to compare with the estimated length of pregnancy. The earlier the measurements are taken the more accurate they are in assessing the length of the pregnancy.
