Question

When trying to figure out exactly how many weeks pregnant you are and due date, would it be more accurate to use the date of conception (since i do know it)? Or is better to use the first day of last menstrual cycle.

Re: Question

if you have regular 28 day cycles the LMP date is accurate... if not than you should use the date of conception if you know it...

or just wait till the Dr. can measure the baby

Re: Question

If you know the date of conception then I honestly think that's more accurate.
take that date and add 38 weeks to it.

pregnancy is 40 weeks in total and it's calculated as if conception was 2 weeks in. so 38 weeks from conception is accurate.

that's how i calculated it and it was dead on accurate.

I ovulated on CD 21.. and had I gone by LMP I would be off by a full week.
