Ultrsound accuracy for conception date Posted: 04-08-08 05:25am


Hi, My girl and i had sex on 2nd, march, she said she missed her period and she is not sure when she was due for her period. We had a test and it was possitive. Today (i.e 8th, April) we got our UltraSound result, it states that the baby is 6weeks and 4 days. I have look far and wide if this is to be trusted. If it is so i could not be the father. How accurate is UltraSound at this stage? Am i the Father? 6weeks 4days back she was away on a trip. I am full of doubts. Can someone please help me. Thanks

Subtract 2 wks off of the Results and that is when she would have gotten pregnant. Pregnancy goes from the beginning of your last period.

So, that means the Ultra Sound result is not accurate by 2 weeks?? The thing is she don't remember when she last had her period. How am i gonna make conclusion?

The dating sounds funky, but it works out. 6 weeks and 4 days ago she was on her period. Pregnancy dating goes from the FIRST day of your LAST period. That is how they come to the due date, how they date the pregnancy and how she is 6 weeks 4 days pregnant.

The ultrasound just told you and her when her last period was.

Sounds like you are a daddy.
