forgotten to mention in my last thread and unsure how to edit also are dating scans measured from conception or LMP?

They give dates based on the features the embryo has. Not based on a moment in time like LMP.

Many women ovulate around 2 weeks after their period so generally to get conception you would take 2 weeks off the number of weeks on the scan. So you would have conceived 7 weeks and 4 days before the scan. Which would be mid Feb.
But this is only an average. Unless you know when you ovulated it's impossible to say for definite.
