due date issues, questions  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
so....i really hope that i am not the ONLY mama of an active 2.5ish year old. i honestly-to-goodness can not remember the dates of my last af. i know it is late now....we were traveling at this time a month ago and af was finished. otherwise, i honestly can't remember. i feel like i must have been fertile around the 21st, because dh and i were intimate on the 28th and i figured i was not ovulating then...i remember thinking it was a bit late after af. so, if i conceived around the 21st +/- 3 days, when would my due date be? i can't remember any of the calculating stuff and am away from home and my books

according to this website:

If you concieved "on" 7/21, your LMP was 7/7 & your EDB is 4/13/08 Of course that's all based on someone having a simple 28 day cycle.

If you're not sure about your dates, I'd really push to get an ultrasound during your first trimester, that's when u/s is most accurate for correlating baby's size to EDB.

Congrats mama!

thanks! i'm not *too* concerned about due date, and do have a basic idea of when i was pregnant (mid-july), but still....

dd #1 was 12 days past due and a completely natural vaginal birth at 10lbs 5oz, so i would love to have an idea of due date but anticipate a bigger babe and later birthday again.

I just did an "estimate" I could not totaly remember, so I guessed. Mylee was 3 and a half weeks late....so my babies don't usually adhere to a schedule.

I'm guessing as well. My cycles are irregular, I didn't even think I ovulated that cycle, guess I was wrong! Lucky for me, I took a vacation without DH in July, so I have to of conceived after I got back so I'm guessing within a 10 day window.

I'm completely guessing on my due date, since I never got a pp AF after my last baby. This pregnancy was a surprise, to say the least, since AF hadn't returned and we only had about two weeks when we weren't using birth control. Because of that I feel like I can narrow it down to about a week-long window, but I'm still guessing I'll need an ultrasound in the next few weeks to give me an actual due date.
i want as accurate a one as I can get, since my midwife won't attend births after two weeks post-date, so I dont' want to guess and give myself an earlier date than I should have.
