Hi there!
Am new to this but I'm driving myself mad
with dates and numbers and I was wondering
if any of you can help me out?
I might confuse ye but I'll try to be
simple!
This is my first baby...I'm 16 weeks! Well
16 weeks since conception with a due date
of Oct 9! But my conception date is Jan 6
and if you count up that's just under 280
days!
This is the length of a pregnancy since
LMP but at my 12 week scan my Gyno told me
that the fetal age was 12 weeks which if
you use the 40 week way of counting made
me 14 weeks! So now if my baby is 16 weeks
since conception...am I actually 18 weeks
pregnant?
I am so tired of running this around in
my head!
I hope you are all doing really really
good and looking forward to chatting with
other pregnant chicks!
Thanks for your help**

You count from the 1st day of your last
period.

I couldn't count from the 1st day of my
last period b/c I ovulated on day 32
instead of day 12 or whatever, so if you
know when you conceived just go back 2
weeks and add 40 weeks.
