Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I think your husband is right. if you quit the pills in the middle of the month, his count sounds pretty darn close if not right on the money.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Aali, The first day of my last period was January 9, I am not sure when we conceived exactly, we were trying like rabbits! Anyway, I went yesterday for an ultrasound and I am 7 weeks pregnant today. You calculate it by taking the first day of your last period. I hope this helps. Congrats too!

Nope.. because if you know when you concieved, then you count 2 weeks before that date. If you concieved on that date, then you'd be 5 1/2 weeks pregnant. > That can't be!

If your LMP was the 17th, then you'd have concieved first of february and you'd be 5.5 weeks along. if you concieved on the 17th of january, you'd be 7.5 weeks along..

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I have one of those wheel things that calculates based on your last period date. If it was Jan 9th my wheel says you are 7 weeks on the nose. EDD is October 17th. > Aali, > The first day of my last period was January 9, I am not sure when we > conceived exactly, we were trying like rabbits!

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 I told her we conceived on the Jan 17th. I told her the first day of my last period was around Jan 6?. She came up with the figure of being about 5.5 weeks preggers with a due date of oct 10 ....at least until she sees me next time! aali > > > I went to the OB yesterday.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 Hey congrats!! My doc said yeah it's the day of the last period. Ok fine...somewhere around Jan 6th is my guess. But because I went off my pills shortly after I started the new cycle she's calculating me at 5.5 weeks.... sheeeesh! > Aali, > The first day of my last period was January 9, I am not sure when we > conceived exactly, we were trying like rabbits!
