How far along am I?

My LMP was on April 9th. The due date calculators online say January 14th. When I went for my initial bloodwork, the NP said that based on my LMP, my due date is January 16th. Then, at my first sono, I was four days behind from my LMP.

I'm trying to do a ticker on my profile. Its been 8 weeks 1 dday since my LMP. It only works out that way when I put in January 14th as my due date.

What do I go by??

Re: How far along am I?

Based on an average cycle of 28 days I have your due date as 1/14 going by you LMP. The NP should have gotten the same thing, perhaps she made an error.

Re: How far along am I?

I have a similarly confusing story My last AF was April 10. Online calculators gave me January 15 due date. Went to the OB today he said based on my LMP due date is 1/17 which would make me 8 wks today. Based on the sono DC is measuring three days ahead (so i am 8 wks 3 days) and the sono puts me at a due date of 1/14. Since I have had regular periods (28 day cycle) my OB went with the 1/17 due date.

I will say though tiwh my DS I was also measuring early at the first sono and my actual due date was closer to the sono date than the LMP date.

HTH! Looks like we are right around the same time

when i went for my first sono and they gave me a due date..they did say + / - 2 days. so the 14th and the 16th can technically be right.

Re: How far along am I?

my lmp was april 8th, which if i had a 28 day cycle wouldve made my edd jan13, but i was 99% sure i conceived on april 25th (definitely not before) and that would make my due date jan 16th. when i went for my first sono last friday, baby measured 6wks 6 days, making my due date jan 16 as expected. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow.

if your lmp was apr 9, and you are on a 28 day cycle, you probably ovulated around april 23rd or so, and conceived within a day or 2, so, jan 14-16 sounds right!
