How would she know when she ovulates?

This hormone starts to release once the egg implants in the uterine wall(this happens 6-12 days after ovulation).

Very sensitive hpt’s can detect the hcg hormone as early as 3 days after the embryo implants in the uterus. This means that as early as 9 days after conception a woman could get a positive hpt.

If her due date is August 22nd, conception would have occurred around November 30th. If she got a positive hpt on December 9th, then that would be 9 days after conception and it would be possible to get a true positive.

Her EDD is one week different that what her LMP EDD would be. That would lead to the assumption her ovulation was late.

Which makes me a week off right, but everything seems to be going fine with the baby/pregnancy now.
Im going to get the OB to go over it with me next time i visit her.
